| Research Abstract |
Listening abilities are strongly influenced by learner's backgrounds of their language learning, individual properties of learning, and etc. Learners sometimes still find difficulties when they listen to target language even though they have enough knowledge of grammars or vocabularies of their target language. In this study, we focused on the learning abilities of high-level learner to examine factors in listening difficulties and the measurement of these difficulties. Next, we developed a teaching material to solve these difficulties.
Sakai (2000) practically researched the difference between native Japanese speakers and foreign learners on the vocabulary understanding strategies in listening, using a rakugo listening.
Igashima (2001) examined how learners are aware of the sound changes in speech in Japanese and examined the relationship of the awareness and the learner's level of Japanese. Hirakata (2003-b) examined and analyzed the errors of listening of Chinese learners in vowel dropped sounds (museika).
We developed a CAI material in listening for sound changes, especially hatuonka, youonka, and museika which especially require the intentional study. This CAI material was used by learners to gather data and feedback.
Because the way of listening learning is different by the learner's mother tongue and/or background of their study, individual learning is very effective in this learning, we developed this CAI material on WEB which has no limitation of place, time, and so on.
