Question 1.1
In teaching summarising and paraphrasing during the listening process, it's crucial to help
students understand and practice these skills as part of their listening comprehension
development. Here’s how you can approach each:
Summarising:
Explanation: Summarising involves condensing the main points or ideas of a spoken text
into a concise form.
Teaching Approach: Start by modeling the skill. After listening to a short passage,
demonstrate how to identify the main ideas and key details. Guide students in practicing
summarising through activities like creating bullet points or writing a brief summary
paragraph.
Example: After listening to a podcast about climate change, students might summarize it
as: "The podcast discussed the causes, impacts, and potential solutions for climate
change, emphasizing the need for global cooperation."
Paraphrasing:
Explanation: Paraphrasing is restating the information from a spoken text in different
words while maintaining the original meaning.
Teaching Approach: Teach students to listen actively for specific details and
expressions used in the text. Then, practice paraphrasing by asking students to restate
sentences or paragraphs in their own words without changing the original meaning.
Example: From the same climate change podcast, students could paraphrase a key point
like this: "The speaker highlighted that human activities, such as burning fossil fuels,
contribute significantly to global warming."
By integrating these skills into listening activities, students not only enhance their
comprehension but also develop their ability to articulate and reframe information effectively.
