Journal Title: Journal of Science and today’s world - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of metacognitive listening strategy training on the listening performance of Iranian students who studied English as a foreign language at Islamic Azad University, Tonekabon Branch, Iran. Two intermediate groups, a control group (n= 20) and an experimental group (n= 20), were chosen as the participants of the study. The experimental group received five weeks of metacognitive strategy training embedded into a listening course book, while the other group did not. At the end of the training, a listening test taken from the teacher’s manual of the same course book was administered to both groups. The analysis of the test scores using t-test revealed that the experimental group did statistically better in the test.
