*Teaching not Testing: Strategies for Teaching and Assessing Listening Skills
Friday, May 3, 2013 at 10:00 AM–11:45 AM EDT
4 Ashland (125)
Session Abstract
Listening is often addressed by providing activities that test the accuracy of learners' comprehension instead of teaching learners how to listen accurately. In this workshop, listening skills are identified and materials and strategies are provided for moving beyond testing listening comprehension to actively teaching listening skills and measuring learner outcomes.
