District 156 teachers go to class to learn to listen By Marfea Olsen FlrtNliilir llinl<!lwi»<nh> McHenry High School teachers became students again Opt. 17 as they participated in an in-service training session on 4 4 Listening I Important for You-Important for Your Students. "Hearing is not listening," declared Deborah Vrhel, workshop leader and an in­ structor at Sauk Valley College in Dixon, 111. "Hearing Is passive, listening is active?' "Listening is a four-step process: sense, interpret, evaluate and respond," she said. "Most people do not listen as well as they think they do. Adults and high school students have been tested and found to listen with only 25 percent ef­ ficiency. If your automobile ran at 25 percent efficiency, you'd get rid of it," she quipped. Good listeners avoid bad habits such as tuning out uninteresting subjects, criticizing the person's delivery, reacting emotionally and dwelling on details. Also, attention, becoming distr avoiding difficult material allowing thought-speed ferentials to lead daydreaming. Explaining last item, she said, ' average person speaks about 150-180 words-per-minute, but dif- to the The the average listener can un­ derstand 400-600 words-per- minute. The time difference causes extraneous thoughts to enter the listener's mind, which detracts from the speaker's words. Mistakes in listening often cost money. She cited a missed point as one example. Few people have taken formal courses in listening although it is the first thing learned in life, and the one thing a person does most throughout life. "Isn't it strange that more time is devoted to teaching reading and writing when we do those things less than we listen?" she asked. Vrhel emphasized that the morning workshop was only a beginning in the process of learning to listen. Teachers and students must first become aware of listening and then work on it, she added. At Kent State University, entering freshman students are required to take a test on listening. If they do not score above a given number, they are reauired to enroll in a listening ana study skills course. The west Campus audience took the test given to the college students. Each participant was given a map of Long Island, N.Y., with limited iden­ tifications of places shown on it. A fairly fast-paced, taped talk is played, was C giving an abun­ dance of information on Long TsTiar*T miturtcal. geographical, demographical ana sociological aspects. No note-taking was allowed. The group was then asked to answer 30 multiple choice questions based on the tape. The con­ sensus seemed to be that the test was difficult and several teachers questioned its propriateness for college fi man students. However, most of the teachers found they scored at average or above. Afterward, Principal William Dodds, of East Campus, com­ mented, "I questioned the validity of the test until I scored a 23." Vrhel said his score was in the 99th percentile. Other "tests" dispelled myths many teachers (and probably most other people) believe about listening. Among them, listening requires very little energy, it is LIBRARY resident. "We need additional aides on the playground. There are only three aides to monitor 125 children," said still another. Board member Gary Lock- wood said t the latest status is that the company has with­ drawn its petition for an­ nexation.
