The Impact

Listening is one of the most important skills which should be had by students of English as foreign language. Listening has a vital part in learning foreign language especially in term of communication because many of students’ activities are used to listen. However, students’ listening comprehension has not met good result yet. This study was conducted to find out the impact of using dictogloss in improving students’ listening comprehension achievement. The design of this study was a quasi-experimental study. By using purposive sampling, the samples were taken from the second grade students of SMA Negeri 1 Pandeglang. The experimental class was taught by using dictogloss, while the control class was taught without using dictogloss. Test was used as the primary instrument in collecting the data. The final mean scores gained from both classes were analyzed by using t-test with significance level of α = 0.05. It was found that the mean score of experimental class was 67.6, while the control class was 59.96. The statistical computation of gained score revealed that the t-value was 2.53, and the t-table at α = 0.05 is 1.668. This data show that the gained t-value is greater than t-table. It means that there was a significance difference of two mean scores gained. Therefore, it can be concluded that dictogloss brings positive influence to students’ listening comprehension achievement, and it can be an alternative technique to be used in teaching listening in the classroom.

Listening Skill

Listening is one of the most important skill since more than 45% of communicating time is spent listening. Based on that fact, teacher should put high concern on applying effective teaching strategies to develop listening ability. Dictogloss method can give benefit to develop the students’ listening comprehension. It involves top-down and bottom-up activities which encourage students to hear some sounds, hold them in their working memory, and then interpret what they’ve just heard before something new comes along. At the same time, listeners are using their background knowledge.The problems solved in this study were that students still got difficult in understanding spoken English, most of students did not understand the instruction when teacher used spoken English, and some teachers still used conventional method to teach listening. This study used the design of pre-experimental. The subject of the study was the second grade students’ of SMA Negeri 16 Batam. The experimental group was taught listening by using dictogloss method, while the control group got treatment from the teacher’s conventional method.The result of the test was analyzed by using t-test formula with the significance level 5%. From the analysis, the writer found that t-test was greater than t-table, namely 14.45>1,980. Thus, it can be concluded that there is a significant effect of dictogloss method towards students’ listening comprehension.Based on the result of this research, it is concluded that there is a significant effect of dictogloss method towards students’ listening skill at the second grade of SMA Negeri 16 Batam in academic year 2013/2014. The research finding implies that dictogloss method is applicable to increase the second grade students of senior high school’s listening comprehension. The activity of dictogloss can be as input in scheduling listening class of the English curriculum for Senior High School. This method might give contribution to support students’ skill in writing. Therefore, the writer suggests the English teacher should use dictogloss method to teach listening, the other researchers are suggested to carry out further studies about the use of dictogloss method and the other strategy in developing students’ listening comprehension, and students should learn how to accommodate differences in ability.

This study investigates the impact of strategic notetaking on English as Foreign Language (EFL) learners’ academic performance among university students in Jordan. Thus, we hypothesized that there is a significant and positive impact of strategic note-taking on EFL learners’ academic performance. To confirm this hypothesis, descriptive research design was applied in this study. 384 (three hundred and eighty-four) respondents were randomly selected from the four public universities in Jordan. This study adapted instruments which include strategic note taking and students’ academic performance measurement items and the data obtained was analysed through Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS-22). The result showed that the strategic note taking (i.e. independent variable) has significant effects on EFL learners’ academic performance (R2 =.919). Moreover, the strategic notetaking made the significant contribution (Beta= .449; t= 18.714; P <0.05) to the prediction of EFL learners’ academic performance. In line with the findings, this study emphasised and explained the impact of strategic notetaking and how to improve EFL learners’ level of notetaking for better academic performance in Jordan.

The Impact

Existing research has established captions as effective second-language (L2) or foreign language (FL) listening comprehension aids. However, due to the transient nature of captions, not all learners are capable of attending to captions in all cases. Previous work posited that to leverage the impact of technologies in learning and instruction, a better understanding of the interplay between technology and cognition is warranted. In this vein, the current study set out to investigate the effects of four different caption modes (full vs. partial vs. real-time vs. control) on the listening comprehension of 95 high-intermediate Taiwanese learners of English as a foreign language (EFL) with different caption reliance (i.e. more-caption-reliant vs. less-caption-reliant). The results showed no significant difference between the participants’ listening comprehension outcomes under the four caption conditions when their caption reliance was not considered. However, when this was considered, the differences among the four caption conditions became salient, which was suggestive of the selective effect of captions on L2 learners with different caption reliance. While less-caption-reliant L2 learners had the best listening comprehension outcome under the partial-caption condition and the worst under the full-caption condition, more-caption-reliant L2 learners exhibited the best performance under the full-caption condition yet the worst under the partial-caption condition. The finding underscores the importance of considering L2 learners’ processing profiles when utilizing captioned videos as multimodal instructional/learning materials and speaks to the need of utilizing differentiated video materials for optimal listening outcomes.
