4 Course Description Advanced Listening is a course designed to help students
better understand what people are saying in English. In this
course, students will listen to a variety of people speaking
about many interesting things at different speeds and with
different speech patterns. Students will learn skills for
listening to get the main idea and most of the supporting
information, and will have many opportunities to practice
these skills in all the exercises which follow the lessons.
Students will learn about some more challenging sounds in
English, and will also learn some useful grammar and
vocabulary. The goal of advanced listening is to focus on a
certain detail information through case-based learning. It
engages students in discussion of specific scenarios that
resemble or typically are real-world examples. This
focusing on detail is motivated by students having to
answer a question on a listening exercise or test. To do
advanced listening students listen to an extract and then
answer questions on it. To answer these questions students
may have to focus on one aspect of the content or students
may be asked questions that focus on the voices of the
speakers themselves.
