Deskripsi:
This course strengthens the listening skills that students have developed in the previous listening courses and aims to bring their comprehension skills to the next level, that is, a critical level of comprehension of various spoken English texts. This course, therefore, contains practice materials to develop, in particular, the following skills: retaining relevant information (e.g. note-taking, outlining, and summarizing); identifying opinions and supporting arguments, inferring a speaker’s attitude and intentions; distinguishing between facts and opinions; evaluating information and opinions; and recognizing biases. In addition to developing students’ competence in listening, this course also aims to cultivate students’ listening habits and positive attitude towards listening through the use of varied, interesting materials and activities. With carefully selected materials in terms of contents and activities of different interaction patterns, students are also expected to nurture good behaviour and skills in learning individually and with other people.
