Abstract

Description

This case study aimed to examine the results of implementing an Instructional design in the skill of listening for details in students of 11th grade of School Santa Maria de Pance in Cali, Colombia. The participants were teenagers aged between 16-17 years old. Graders took a listening comprehension test that diagnosed their level of proficiency in their English Listening skills. Field notes were taken in order to get to know students’ learning styles, needs and interests. It was found that the participants had diverse learning preferences and competences towards learning English. They also lack constant practice in the language and particularly difficulties in the skill of listening for details. An Instructional Design (based on the ASSURE model) was proposed to determine the impact on this skill.
