Dinleme türlerinin adlandırma ve sınıflama bakımından eleştirisi

Abstract

In order to develop listening skill, there are certain listening types that one should be aware of while listening with respect to target and objective. Awareness on the types of listening is a prerequisite for developing students' critical and creative thinking since students listen in accordance with a preset objective. A review of literature review on the status of listening types demonstrates that there exist a myriad of types and classifications within the domain of listening. In accordance with that detection; different types, denominations and classifications of listening/watching skill in various resources have been comparatively analyzed. Problem statement of the research is thus; “In relevant literature are there any differences in type, denomination and classification of listening/watching skill?”. In this research document analysis which is one of the qualitative research methods has been employed. In the analysis of research data, categorical analysis which is one of the content analysis techniques has been harnessed. In the resources analyzed within the context of this research, 93 types of listening modes were detected. 57% of the types were detected to be used in a single resource while remaining 43% were detected to be used in at least two resources; it was hence identified that 21 different listening types were examined in 81 different modes. At the end of this study, listening types with the same context were combined, 93 types recorded at the beginning were then reduced to 33. This number decreased to 25 after eliminating the listening types which were mentioned only once in examined resources. Within the scope of this research it has been determined that critical listening was the most widely-referenced type of listening and also the type which was denominated with the highest number of different names in academic resources.
