Everybody seems so busy that when they respond to you, they will let you repeat what you said or worse no response at all. Research shows that an average of 45% is spent listening compared to 30% speaking, 16% reading and 9% writing. (Adler, Elmhorst & Lucas, 2012). The remaining 30% is for non-communication. In the previous lessons, you learned about the different types of listening. Let us recall the different types of listening. The four types of listening are appreciative, empathic, comprehensive, and critical/analytical. When you listen for appreciation you are listening for enjoyment so this is appreciative listening. Example, when you listen to your favorite music and you enjoy singing along with it, it is appreciative listening. When you listen empathically you are doing so to show mutual concern. During this listening process you are focused to the speaker and you try to show him that you are in his situation. Example, when your friend shares to you her problem about doing household chores at home, you listen emphatically by being present at the moment or by being mindful about what he shares. If you are watching the news, listening to a lecture, or getting directions from someone, you are listening to understand or listening to comprehend the message that is being sent. This is comprehensive listening wherein you do active listening. In class for example, while your teacher lectures on a certain lesson, you are also in the process of taking down notes at the same time participating in the discussion. The last type of listening is analytical/critical listening. Analytical listening is listening to evaluate the content of the message. As a critical listener you are listening to all parts of the message, analyzing it, and evaluating what you heard. For example, the current situation we are in—the COVID-19 Pandemic. Many people have their own claims about their plight. Others will win approval of Barangay officials just to be recipients of the Social Amelioration Program (SAP) of the government. Assuming that you are a barangay official assigned to validate the truthfulness of information given to you, how will you apply analytical listening? To be an analytical listener, first, listen attentively to the speaker. As you listen, be 3 CO_Q1_English10_Module 6 attentive to his gestures- his facial expression and hand gestures. Consider also his tone. Is he simply trying to win for approval or is the intention sincere? Second, ask for questions to determine to what extent is the truthfulness of the information shared by the speaker like how many members in the family are working? How much is the monthly income? Are they renting or do they own the house? Third, look for evidences. Ask for a barangay certification that the family belongs to an indigent family. Ask for employment /student identification to determine the work of the head or member of the family; and to determine how many siblings are attending school. Finally, validate the claim based on proofs and honesty of answers given. If you have done this, you are a good analytical listener.

Being an analytical listener, you have to consider listening in two aspects: listening to understand and listening to evaluate. Remember though that the focus here is on analytical listening, to be able to do this you have to employ both. Here are some tips to be a good listener: 1. Withhold judgment. It is often difficult to understand another person’s ideas especially when you have a strong opinion about something but you have to listen first before you evaluate. 2. Talk and interrupt less. Sometimes the best approach to listening is to let the speaker talk. Speak only when necessary. In this way, quality communication is achieved and your level of understanding improved. 3. Ask questions. Sincere questions are genuine requests for information to gather facts and details, clarify meanings and encourage a speaker to elaborate. 4. Paraphrase. Paraphrasing involves restating speaker’s ideas in your own words to make sure you have understood them correctly. 5. Attend to non-verbal cues. Focusing on a speaker’s non-verbal cues may tell you more than his or her words. Non-verbal cues include gestures, postures, vocal tones, facial expression, and more. 6. Take notes. When the conversation involves details or ideas you need to remember, notes can be essential. 7. Analyze the speaker’s evidence. As a good listener, you need to ask yourself about evidences a speaker gives to support his or her statements. Once you’ve identified the evidence, you need to make sure it is valid. When do we say that evidences/proofs are valid or invalid? The validity of evidences means details given were research- based, true, and supported by statistics. Evidences are invalid on the other hand if they are opinionated and not supported research. 8. Examine emotional appeals. Sometimes emotional reactions are a valid basis for action. In some cases though, emotional appeals can obscure important logical considerations. Analytical listening involves problem solving or decision making. You have to ask yourself questions like ‘what is the speaker trying to say?’, or ‘what is the main argument being presented?’, ‘how does what I hear differ from my beliefs or opinions?’ Remember your values and opinions are based on your ability to process 7 CO_Q1_English10_Module 6 information to be able to solve problems or make informed decisions after weighing pros and cons.
