Publisher's Synopsis
Contrary to the inadequate assumption that listening is a passive operation, since it is among reading a receptive skill, listening or rather listening comprehension is proven to be a very active and complex process. And more than that; it is the key skill that is fundamental for first and foreign language acquisition. That is why it should especially for English beginners be the central skill to be taught in the ESL (English as a Second Language) classroom at school. Dieses Buch informiert über den Prozess des Hörverstehens, die Bedeutung des Hörverstehens für die Kommunikation und für das Sprachenlernen und zeigt Möglichkeiten auf, was diese Erkenntnisse für den Englischunterricht in der Grundschule bedeuten sollten.
