Part 1
Effective Academic Listening
Objective #1: Discuss effective note-taking Strategies

Activity 1: Reflecting on note-taking, page 2
1. Why do you think it’s necessary to take notes during lectures?
Instructors lecture to give students information about the
content of the course and to give information about
assignments such as tests and reports.
Students take notes to have information to use on tests and
other assignments.
Students also take notes to be sure they understand the details
of course assignments such as when a test will be given and the
kinds of questions that will be on the test.
Activity 3: Analyzing effective note-taking
strategies & Activity 4: Filling in missing
information, pages 3-4
Suggested note-taking strategies

Reasons why these strategies could be
helpful

Include name, date, and lecture
topic at top of page

To be able to go back after several
weeks to find information; to borrow
and lend notes to classmates more
easily; to maintain chronological
order in case you are absent; you will
know the general idea of the topic;
helps you to organize; helps you to
find it later; represents lecture's
content; helps you remember data

Sit near the instructor

To hear and see better and to focus
more effectively; listen more;
impresses the instructor
Read related textbook material
before lecture

To prepare yourself for the topic; to
see new words that you will
probably hear; to be ready to ask
questions that are unanswered in
the lecture; learn more about
the topic

Record all important words

To make sure that you understand the
words that will probably be used again
and again; these words are most likely
related to the content

Separate general ideas from
specific ideas -by indenting
examples
-by indenting details

To see the “big picture” as well as the
details; to memorize the information
more easily; you can fit more
information on a page

Leave white space

To add information later; to add
personal
examples
or
other
information from reading
Use abbreviations and symbols

To write down as much information
as possible--quickly

Do not sit near the door, window, or
talkative students

To avoid being distracted by outside
noise and events

Do not write every word

To save time

Revise your notes shortly after class
to make them clearer

To help you remember the
information better; to give you
immediate opportunity to ask
questions if necessary; you can
start to learn immediately
Activity 5: Using context to learn word
meanings, page 4
a. to imagine; foresee

g. made bright with light

b. made using whatever is available h. developments
c. provided together with something else i. to obtain something

d. at the beginning

j. machine invented for a certain use

e. at the same time

k. right to make and sell something

f. at the end
Learning the Stress
Patterns of New Words
What is stress?

Stress

Stress is the relative emphasis that may be given to certain
syllables in a word, or to certain words in a phrase or
sentence. The term is also used for similar patterns of
phonetic prominence inside syllables. The stress placed on
syllables within words is called word stress or lexical
stress.
What is a syllable?
A syllable is a sound unit in a word or one beat. For
instance, you can clap your hands one time when saying
"June" and four times when saying "January." June has
one syllable. January has four syllables. In each English
word, there is one syllable that is the longest, loudest, and
highest in pitch. Recognizing that syllable, both in
speaking and in listening, is important for effective
communication.
An easy way to remember how to pronounce a word
is to write the number of syllables, and then the
number of the stressed syllable, with a dash [ - ]
between the two numbers. For example, ‘’device’’
write ‘’2-2’’, meaning that the word has two syllables
and the second syllable is stressed.
il. lu’. mi. nate
Tap your fingers four times on the table as you hear the
word. Tap and pronounce the word, putting stress on
the the second syllable. We can identify this word as
a ‘’4-2 word.’’
Activity 6
learning the pronunciation of new words
1. patent [2-1]
2. accompany [4-2]

3. advance [2-2]
4. initial [3-2]
5. envision [3-2]

6. simultaneous [5-3]
7. makeshift [2-1]
8. acquire [2-2]
Power Grammar
Recognizing Words that Signal Time
In the reading and in the lecture, you will hear, there are
several time words or expressions that indicate when
something happens. Recognizing and knowing what these
words mean will help you focus your attention and follow
the order of events (chronology) during a lecture. For
example,
First, ….

Another ……

until ……

Then …..

Prior to ….

Subsequently ….

The next ….

Before ….

Finally…

About the same time ….

former/ latter

By X, …
Activity 8: Recognizing signal time words,

Additional words/expressions that signal time
underlined in reading.
2nd paragraph=in 1891, available three years later
3rd paragraph=in 1895, within weeks of their
Christmastime showing, On April 23, 1896
Activity 9: Understanding words that
signal time, pages 8-9
