Aiming at improving the efficiency of foreign language listening teaching~ this thesis has first combined the research results in cognitive psychology and learning strategies; and then established a metacognition-centred teaching model in foreign language listening classroom, which means to improve listening teaching efficiency by instructing students to use metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive strategies in foreign language listening classroom and therefore optimizing their transition between input and intake in the process of listening comprehension. Finally this thesis has confirmed the two hypotheses posed and verified the feasibility and effectiveness of the metacognition-centred teaching model by carrying out an experimental study, which includes a pre-test, a 12-week teaching program~ a post-test and an investigation as well. |
