This resource requires the following modifications to explicitly target listening comprehension:
  • shift the burden of decoding/encoding onto the educator (i.e., the educator should read/write instead of the student(s)).
  • shift the avenue of critical thinking from writing to discussion (i.e., instead of students writing they should discuss).
