چکیده | ||
Listening is important in daily life and academic contexts as it is crucial to sustain effective communication. Shadowing is one of the techniques that might improve listening comprehension. Therefore, this study aimed to find the effect of the shadowing technique on the listening comprehension of elementary and intermediate EFL learners. The participants included 96 EFL learners who were selected through convenience sampling and were divided into three groups, namely pre-shadowing, post-shadowing, and control group for each proficiency level. Following the shadowing technique procedures, eight lessons were taught using the Tactics for Listening Book Series. The data were collected by pre- and post-tests of listening comprehension and were analyzed using the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The findings of the study indicated that post-shadowing activities were the most useful and practical ones for both proficiency levels. Therefore, teachers and material developers are recommended to include shadowing activities in classroom practices and teaching materials. | ||

چکیده [English] | ||
گوش دادن نقش مهمی هم در زندگی روزمره و هم در زمینه های دانشگاهی دارد، زیرا برای برقراری ارتباط موًثر بسیار مهم است. یکی از تکنیک هایی که ممکن است درک شنیداری را بهبود بخشد، تکنیک سایه پردازی است. بنابراین، هدف این پژوهش این است که آیا آموزش تکنیک سایه پردازی مهارت شنیداری زبان آموزان سطح مقدماتی و متوسط ایرانی را بهبود می بخشد یا خیر. شرکت کنندگان شامل 96 زبان آموز ایرانی مقدماتی و متوسط بودند که به روش نمونه گیری در دسترس انتخاب شدند و برای هر سطح زبانی به سه گروه (تکنیک سایه پیش از تدریس، تکنیک سایه پس از تدریس و گروه کنترل) تقسیم شدند. هشت درس با استفاده از کتاب «فنون گوش دادن» (سطح پیشرفته برای گروه متوسط و سطح ابتدایی برای گروه مقدماتی) به همراه روش های تدریس تکنیک سایه پردازی تدریس شد. برای سنجش نتایج، پیش آزمون و پس آزمون براساس همان کتابها تهیه و دادهها با استفاده از تحلیل کواریانس تجزیه و تحلیل شدند. نتایج نشان می دهد که فعالیتهای تکنیک سایه پردازی پس از تدریس برای دانش آموزان سطح مقدماتی و متوسط مفیدتر و کاربردیتر است. بنابراین، به معلمان و طراحان مطالب درسی توصیه می شود که فعالیت های سایه پردازی را در فعالیت های کلاس درس و مواد آموزشی بگنجانند. | ||
