Out-of-Class Listening Activities

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

  The study is based upon a questionnaire survey which has investigated how a selected group of Korean university students tend to carry out their EFL listening practices in out-of-classroom settings. It discusses a study into the out-of-class listening activities and strategies of 120 Korean learners of English from two different universities. The study finds that 1) the most-common activities are listening to TOEIC or other exam preparation materials, 2) many of the participants exert little effort and time to listening to audio and to watching video featuring native speakers, and 3) favorite study materials and preferred listening device of the participants reflect the state-of-the-art educational technology. The study also explores the individual experiences with the Self-Accessed Language Learning (SALL) facilities on campus as part of out-of-class English listening activities.
