OverviewListeningtakes an experiential approach to listening instruction, providing extensive applications and cases within the context of a sound theoretical framework. This book encourages the reader to view listening as a process involving six interrelated components, which are developed along the parallel dimensions of theory and skill building. Within the unifying theoretical framework of the HURIER model, readers develop an understanding of the listening process and acquire observable listening skills. The Fourth Edition continues to explore the impact of culture, technology, and globalization, and raises ethical questions to promote consideration of the responsibilities associated with listening behavior. Readers will readily recognize the important role listening plays in helping them to achieve their personal and professional goals while acquiring strategies to become more effective listeners.
