Abstract

Understanding listening skills is vital in language learning, yet many students struggle with it, partly due to low metacognitive awareness. This research emphasizes the importance of metacognitive awareness in language learning, specifically in listening comprehension. Students often face challenges due to low metacognitive awareness, affecting their ability to plan, monitor, and evaluate listening strategies. The urgency of this study lies in enhancing listening skills through improved metacognitive training, which can aid in effective listening comprehension and overall academic performance. By identifying these areas of need, educators can better tailor teaching methods and curricula to foster more active and reflective listening in students, ultimately benefiting their language learning journey. This study aims to investigate the relationship between metacognitive awareness and listening comprehension among high school students. Conducted in two classes with a total of 39 students, the research employed a quantitative design using the “Metacognitive Awareness Inventory for Listening (MAIL)” and a “Listening Comprehension Test.” Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and independent samples t-tests to compare scores between the two classes. Results indicated no significant differences in metacognitive awareness (p = 0.638) and listening comprehension (p = 0.431) between the two groups. These findings suggest that other contextual factors, beyond metacognitive awareness, may influence listening comprehension. Further research is recommended to explore these additional factors and their impact on students’ listening skills and metacognitive strategies in educational contexts.

Abstract

Various strategies can be used for teaching listening. Some lecturers have applied metacognitive strategies in their teaching-learning process to help their students comprehend listening skills. This research aims to examine lecturers’ perceptions of how they use metacognitive strategies in teaching listening. Moreover, this research employed a qualitative methodology. The instrument used was an interview consisting of 7 questions related to how well the lecturers were familiar with metacognitive strategies and how they helped their students in using them in their listening class. Furthermore, the sampling technique used was purposive sampling with the targeted participants who had experience in teaching listening as lecturers. 13 lecturers participated in this research. Then, the data were thematically analyzed. The results showed that the lecturers—called participants thought that it was important to have before, during, and after listening activities to support students absorbed how to think about their thinking process. In addition, the result also found that all of the lecturers had not followed any specific training about how to apply metacognitive strategies in listening class. From the result of the research, it can be concluded that the lecturers think that metacognitive strategies can provide more assistance to students to enhance their listening skills.
