Academic Listening
Academic Listening materials were developed for the
pre-sessional course at the ELC, University of Exeter for independent
learning activities in August/September 2003. They run on WebCT and include
10 mini-lectures expanding the materials originally developed as the Talking
Academics project. Besides, seven 1-hour lectures were recorded and some
additional materials made available to students for more listening practice.
Take-up among students was very positive, and discussions
are under way to consider how these materials can be of further use both to
students in Exeter and in Graz if some agreement on compensation for the
time and effort invested can be found. Watch this space for developments.
