Knowing a word is one thing; recognising it in the continuous stream of speech is something else. How do listeners accomplish this, and how can we help our learners to achieve the same? In this presentation, we will look at research into spoken word recognition and try out some classroom activities for developing this key aspect of the listening skill.

Perhaps it's because coursebook writers script the listening material and create the exercises based on the script. The audio is recorded after the writing phase is already finished.
