. Question 1 1.1. The Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS)
(2011) states that “listening and speaking are different but co-dependent
skills”. Explain how you would teach ‘summarising’ and ‘paraphrasing’ during
the listening process. Use examples to illustrate your answer. (4)
Teaching summarizing and paraphrasing during the listening process involves guiding students
to effectively process and restate information they hear. Here’s how you can approach teaching
these skills:
1. Teaching Summarizing:
Definition: Summarizing involves condensing the main ideas and key details of a spoken
passage into a concise overview.
Teaching Strategy:
Modeling: Demonstrate how to identify main ideas and supporting details while
listening. Use a graphic organizer or outline to visually represent the structure of a
summary.
Guided Practice: Provide students with short spoken passages or audio clips. Ask them
to listen actively, jot down main ideas and key details, and then compose a summary in
their own words.
Example: For instance, after listening to a lecture on the water cycle, students might
summarize it as, "The water cycle describes how water moves between the earth's
surface, atmosphere, and back again through processes like evaporation, condensation,
and precipitation."
, 2. Teaching Paraphrasing:
Definition: Paraphrasing involves restating information from a spoken passage using different
words while maintaining the original meaning.
Teaching Strategy:
Identifying Key Concepts: Teach students to identify the core concepts and details of
what they hear without copying exact words.
Rewording: Encourage students to rephrase sentences or passages they hear using
synonyms and alternative sentence structures.
Example: After listening to a podcast about climate change, students might paraphrase a
key point: Original: "Rising global temperatures are linked to increased carbon dioxide
emissions from human activities." Paraphrase: "Human activities that release carbon
dioxide into the atmosphere contribute to higher global temperatures."
Integration and Practice:
Interactive Activities: Engage students in pair or group activities where they practice
summarizing and paraphrasing together. This promotes discussion and reinforces
understanding.
Feedback and Reflection: Provide feedback on students' summaries and paraphrases to
help refine their skills. Encourage reflection on the effectiveness of their rephrasing in
capturing the original meaning accurately.
By teaching summarizing and paraphrasing during the listening process, students develop
essential skills in comprehension, critical thinking, and effective communication, aligning with
the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement's emphasis on integrating listening and
speaking as co-dependent skills.
1.2. According to the CAPS (2011:19), “listening instruction involves working
through elements of the listening process”. 3 Copy/scan and paste a suitable
listening text into your assessment and explain, with reference to the listening
text, how you would implement the three stages of listening. (15)
