- becoming a skillful listener requires a lot of learning
- very young infants are already learning to distinguish the particular phonemes that constitute their language
- This is especially true for young people
- Technology has raised the importance of listening,
- It also has the effect of relegating listening to a rather minor role
- learning to listen is critical to learning to read in at least four important ways
- phonemic awareness
- the context of what has already been learned
- These can all be learned through listening, for some students only through listening, especially in the early grades.
- listening and reading require the same strategies
- students love stories and narratives
- transfer the comprehension skills of spoken language to reading

Learning Through Listening | How New Technologies are Changing our View of What Listening is

Tags: listening on 2008-02-14 and saved by18 people -All Annotations (0) -About

more fromwww.learningthroughlistening.org
- three broad aspects of listening
- What makes it active?
- we use our voices to emphasize critical information. We use variance in loudness, pitch, length, and accent to punctuate sentence structure and instill speech with emphasis and nuance
- Normal variation
- by virtue of differences in the amount of cortex or the extent of neural networks allocated to auditory recognition or a particular facet of auditory recognition.
- Hearing is reactive, while listening is strategic.
- individuals with strong strategic listening skills can compensate to an extent for problems with speech recognition
- Speech and music carry emotional content
- ability to establish a priority for listening, to focus attention appropriately, to select what is of value, and to remember what is important.

  8-10 pictures that reflect their thoughts and feelings about the research
  topic.
- Using techniques adapted from psychotherapy, cognitive neuroscience,
  psychology, and sociology, interviewers take participants through
  a series of exercises designed to reveal the fundamental feelings
  and beliefs that drive their actions.
- At
  the conclusion of the interview, an associate trained in digital imagery
  helps participants to create a single collage-like computer image
  that summarizes their thoughts and feelings about the subject.
