The results of a short dictation, a simple and easily set up classroom activity, can offer teachers a wealth of information regarding learners’ listening needs. It also brings listening into the classroom in such a way that it’s open to inspection by the learners and teachers together. This has the effect of tipping attention in the direction of teaching and learning listening rather than simply testing it. In this workshop, we’ll investigate a small set of classroom data, collected from twelve B1-level learners, and discuss possible future listening comprehension areas for practice.
