This article discusses theoretical and practical considerations in developing tests of listening comprehension in English language learning with a particular emphasis on the choice of listening passages, assessment tasks and other things. The history of listening assessment can be traced back to as early as the mid twentieth century. Listening is a vital skill but it can be challenging to assess. The listening construct is defined as the process of receiving, attending to, and assigning meaning to aural stimuli. Questions should be developed while listening to, not reading, the intended passage. Selection of passage may depend upon orality versus literacy, audio versus video, passage length, content familiarity, vocabulary and sentence structure, elaborations and redundancies, speech rate and pauses, and fuzzy word boundaries or other speech phenomena. Consideration must be given to type of response expected, including multiple choice, true-false, open-ended, recall, and nonverbal. Presentation, effects should also be part of the decision, such as advance organizers, language of instructions and questions, and uniformity of presentation. New tests should be refined by pilot testing before actual use. If you need to assess your students¿ listening skills there are a number of factors you need to consider. These include considering the test taker and their needs, the kind of information you want to know about their listening skills and the most appropriate ways to assess these skills so that your test is appropriate and accurately scored.

The production of people under patriarchal relations is examined, and feminist theory focuses on the conflicts that arise between women and men as a result of their different relationships to these two types of production. This definition of production, which is frequently used in much Marxist literature, is challenged by feminist theory.

Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: 12, Bahir Dar University, language: English, abstract: This study aims to assess the correlation between teachers¿ perception and practice in using literary texts to teach reading skills in the case of Ethio-national school, School of Indiana and Seattle academy in Addis Ababa. For this study, correlation design and both quantitative and qualitative data analyses approaches were employed. The samples were 43 teachers selected using comprehensive sampling. Questionnaire, classroom observation and focus group discussion were data collection tools. Both descriptive (frequency and percentage) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation) are used to analyze the quantitative data and thematic narration for qualitative. The findings of the study reveal that most of the respondents perceive using literary texts in teaching reading positively. In spite of their good perceptions, their practices of using literary texts in teaching reading were infrequent. The relationship between teachers¿ perception and their actual practices were positively correlated, but the degree of their correlation was weak. Thus, it is possible to recommend that teachers should use all literary materials included in the text to teach reading skill.
