Abstract

Listening Skill of any language is the key to all effective communication (Amir & Kang, 2018a; Amir & Kang, 2018b). Listening means the ability to receive and interpret the spoken text accurately and this fact makes it the one communication skill that a language learner should master. Considering the importance of the English language in Pakistan’s educational system, and that of Listening comprehension in the communication system, this study critically evaluates listening competency making a comparison between various groups of Higher Secondary School students of the provincial capital Quetta. The purpose of the study is to identify problems and hurdles that students face while listening to the English language and recommend the remedial steps required to be taken by the subject specialists i.e. teachers of English. The study evaluated the performance of Higher Secondary Students in listening comprehension through the conduct of Listening Comprehension Test/Tests in the classrooms while Questionnaires were used to identify problems of listening comprehension, teaching strategies, listening habits, and other variables. The data collected was analyzed quantitatively to determine the significant differences and correlations between various groups and subgroups of students formed on the basis of sectors and gender. The study was expected to help the teachers and students in better academic performance and concluded with findings and subsequent recommendations for teachers and students to improve listening comprehension of English with respect to the Educational system prevailing in the province of Baluchistan.

高中听力理解能力的批判性评价:来自巴基斯坦俾路支省奎达的证据
任何语言的听力技能都是有效沟通的关键(Amir & Kang, 2018a;阿米尔和康,2018b)。听力意味着准确地接收和解释口语文本的能力,这一事实使它成为语言学习者应该掌握的一种沟通技巧。考虑到英语在巴基斯坦教育体系中的重要性,以及听力理解在交流体系中的重要性,本研究通过对省会奎达不同群体的高中学生进行比较,批判性地评估听力能力。这项研究的目的是确定学生在听英语时面临的问题和障碍,并建议学科专家(即英语教师)采取补救措施。本研究通过在课堂上进行听力理解测试来评估高中生的听力理解表现,并通过问卷调查来发现听力理解、教学策略、听力习惯等变量的问题。对收集到的数据进行了定量分析,以确定根据部门和性别组成的不同学生群体和亚群体之间的显著差异和相关性。该研究旨在帮助教师和学生提高学习成绩,并总结了结果和随后的建议,以提高教师和学生对俾路支省现行教育制度的英语听力理解。
