Abstract
Among the four basic LSRW skills in a language – Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing, the first and foremost one is the listening skill since it is the basic skill from which a child learns its mother tongue. English Language Teaching (ELT) would serve the purpose of enabling learners to acquire English as a second language only if the skill development of the basic LSRW skills is given priority. The learners should be given equal opportunities to acquire English language as they have acquired their mother tongue and the teachers of ELT should strive to find out innovative strategies to make their teaching process interesting as well as productive. In the contemporary educational scenario, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has found a slot as an effective medium to support ELT. This action research article deals with the possible ways of utilizing ICT to enhance the listening skill in English among the Class VIII students.
