Project Title Listen Right
Project Category Innovation
Abstract The education sector all over the world had resorted to e-learning because of the COVID-19 pandemic which caused all learning institutions to shut down physically in March 2020. Students are facing various problems in Online Distance Learning and the issue which concerns them the most is the availability of the Internet. In Sarawak, most of the students who stay in the outskirts of Sarawak find it hard to get a fairly good Internet connection. Moreover, rainy days will further aggravate the problem as connectivity will be difficult to assess. Hence, there is a dire need to create a platform which is not only interesting and educational, but also accessible by all students no matter where they are and how their internet connection is. With the impending situation, Listen Right was created for Integrated language Skills 1 (ELC121) in order to cater to the needs of the students. Listen Right aims to achieve three main objectives: 1) to create an interesting learning environment for students to learn listening, 2) to promote self-directed learning among students 3) to produce a platform for both teachers and students to gain feedback on the success of the listening lesson. One of the most interesting features of Listen Right is its ubiquitous access which allows the teaching-learning process to take place anytime and anywhere. The results from the pilot test revealed that students viewed Listen Right as a useful and practical tool for learning listening. The product has commercialisation potential as it is a ready-made teaching aid which can be sold in the market as E-listening textbooks.
