In this unit the Receptive Skills (listening and reading) are presented. First of all, the various differences between the two skills are presented as well as the differences regarding the purpose of using such skills (entertainment or specific purpose). Then, various techniques are presented for receptive skills, which will be used most likely by a reader/listener depending on his/her purposes.
Most importantly, the unit examines how to increase motivation in learners regarding receptive skills, which if not properly handled could also result in discouraging them. Choosing a wide range of topics over time, create interest in the learners (especially in learners less interested in a specific topic) and proposing the right comprehension task are all aspects that need to be taken in consideration in order to improve the motivation in learners.
