Abstract
As many Korean teachers apply the method of intensive listening practice to improve their students’ listening competence, this researcher suggests they evaluate the effect of that approach rather than blindly following current conventions. This study empirically examines the effects of intensive vs. extensive listening practice for the development of L2 listening comprehension. One hundred seventy-nine subjects in the 1st grade of middle school were divided into High and Low groups after taking a level test. While 71 of the extensive listening group listened to 40 short stories for 15 weeks, 108 of the intensive listening group listened to the same 5 stories 8 different times in the same period. Afterward an L2 listening comprehension test was administered and an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was performed on the resulting data. The covariate was the time spent on L2 listening outside the class. The result showed that extensive listening practice was more effective than intensive for the low level students. The findings suggest that for the purpose of encouraging lower level beginners’ listening practice, extensive listening training is preferable.
