"Listening is generally perceived as a difficult and sometimes neglected skill by language teachers and learners. This volume aims to help second language teachers to teach listening in a principled way. It provides a detailed overview of research into effective second language listening and offers insight into the role of learner strategies. The book also examines teachers' beliefs and practices regarding listening and listening pedagogy, providing an analysis of textbook materials for second language listening. With suggested practical activities for the teaching of listening as a process, not a product, the book is an invaluable resource for the development of more effective listening, and will appeal to researchers and practitioners of second language learning alike"--Provided by publisher.
