| Gaia: | The listening skill has been an essential and fundamental piece within oral communication. In this sense, this research had the purpose to determine the enhancement of the listening skill by using multimedia resources, among ninth graders at a public institution in Loja, during the 2022-2023 school year. Moreover, this study employed a mixed method based on practical action research in which some instruments were involved in order to collect quantitative and qualitative data. The quantitative data was gathered by using a pretest and posttest in order to know the knowledge on the students’ listening skills. Additionally, qualitative data on students' perceptions of using multimedia resources to enhance listening skills were collected and analyzed using descriptive statistics and bar charts to illustrate the results obtained. The results showed that ninth graders improved their listening sub-skills which are the following: listening for the main idea: listening for specific details, inferring, and predicting. Furthermore, the results obtained from the questionnaire showed that most of the students felt more engaged and motivated to learn after applying multimedia resources in every class, leading to an increase of their listening skills. Therefore, the study determined that the use of multimedia resources had an important impact on students as it helped them to be more willing to learn the English language. Keywords: cognitive development, English language learning, oral communication, technology integration. |
