Description

The article recommends that more concentration and time be devoted to listening and reading comprehension in basic schools, noting that "students at this level lack the listening and the reading comprehension proficiency". It specifically recommends lengthening the period given to each listening and reading comprehension class. This principle rests on the study's diagnosis of weak receptive skills in Jordanian schools and on its finding that a technology-based program improved both skills.
