Strategy Use for Listening in English as a Foreign Language: A Comparison of Academic and Vocational High School Students

Abstract: Researchers of learner and language use strategies have long suggested that appropriate application of strategies can facilitate second or foreign language learning. Listening is the most fundamental skill in language learning, but for decades this skill was not emphasized in secondary schools in Taiwan. However, in 2012 a new national English listening test (TELC) was launched for both academic and vocational senior high school students, and learning English listening suddenly became important.

“…The contents of the TELC follow the official English language curriculum for senior high school education. The test has four purposes: (1) to assess learning outcomes of English listening based on the senior high school curriculum for English, (2) to foster listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills, (3) to bridge the gap between students' listening and communicative abilities in everyday situations, and (4) to link high school English education with globalisation (Chou 2015(Chou , 2016. As regards content, the TELC comprises 'picture identification' , 'question and answer' , 'short talk' , and 'short report' subtests.…”

“…Existe abundante evidencia, tanto de investigación básica como aplicada, para aseverar que el conocimiento metacognitivo unido a la habilidad para utilizar estrategias metacognitivas constituyen un potente predictor de aprendizaje efectivo (Chou, 2016;Ellis, Bond y Denton, 2012;Lai, 2011;Perry et al, 2018;Quigley et al, 2019;Stel y Veenman, 2008;Zumbrunn, Tadlock y Roberts, 2011) y que la metacognición es clave para mejorar tales resultados de aprendizaje en cualquier edad, dominio disciplinar y cultura (Baas et al, 2015;Dignath et al, 2008;Donker et al, 2014;Hattie, 2016;Perry, Albeg y Tung, 2012;Perry et al, 2018;Quigley et al, 2019;Stel y Veenman, 2008Veenman y Beishuizen, 2004;Veenman, Wilhelm y Beishuizen, 2004;Veenman y Spaans, 2005;Veenman, Hout-Wolters y Afflerbach, 2006). Por otra parte, Marcel Veenman, uno de los autores más prolíficos en el área, puntualiza que para maximizar el impacto de la enseñanza se deben cumplir varias condiciones: la metacognición debe ser parte integral del currículo y no enseñarse en unidades discretas o lecciones aisladas; el propósito de la enseñanza, incluyendo los elementos metacognitivos, debe explicarse claramente a los estudiantes, y el aprendizaje debe darse por un periodo prolongado (Veenman y Beishuizen, 2004: 635).…”

“…A estas acciones, Harmer (1991) y Macháčková (2009) agregan las de organizar, controlar, evaluar, proporcionar recursos, actuar como tutor y ser conscientes de las acciones de los aprendices con el fin de entregar recomendaciones y motivarlos en su aprendizaje. De acuerdo a Rost (2001) y Kurita (2012), la mayor ventaja de los aprendientes exitosos de una L2 es la habilidad de utilizar la escucha Doblele | n.º 5 | Diciembre 2019 como un instrumento de aprendizaje, y debido a que las estrategias metacognitivas involucran un alto grado de procesamiento cognitivo para comprender la lengua meta y desarrollar las tareas (Chou, 2016), la adecuada guía docente es esencial. Considerando que los estudiantes toman plena consciencia de su desempeño académico cuando se les enseña a desarrollar sus habilidades metacognitivas (Hattie, 2013;Perry et al, 2018), es importante que el docente modele las estrategias metacognitivas para un mayor impacto en el aprendizaje (Wall y Hall, 2016), haciendo eco de la larga tradición del andamiaje (Holton y Clarke, 2006) de la escuela sociocognitiva (Bruner, 1990).…”
