Abstract

In the decade of the 80's and beyond, a simple, yet significant fact of education remains. The classroom learning success of most students has been, is, and will continue to be directly related to their listening attitudes and behaviors! Furthermore, all teachers, administrators, and parents are in an immediate and critical position to positively impact on students' listening/learning experience.

As we return to the basic or move forward to the fundamentals, this article will address: 1) the critical importance of listening; 2) the nature of listening development, use, and teaching ratios; 3) the academic classroom learning/listening requirements; and, 4) ways in which teachers can enhance students' listening attitudes and behaviors.
