A Systemic Review of Technology in Developing Listening Skill

Abstract

Technology's acceptance has created a big impact on the acquisition of new languages, especially on the growth of listening abilities. The ways in which different technological aids improve listening comprehension in educational contexts are examined in this systematic review. 26 peer-reviewed studies were examined in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 recommendations to determine how computer-assisted language learning (CALL) and mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) contribute to the development of listening skills. The results show that technology improves student engagement and comprehension by increasing access to real audio resources, facilitating tailored learning, and promoting collaborative teaching methods. But issues like an over dependence on screens and unequal access to digital tools continue to exist. Therefore, even though technology offers great chances to improve listening skills, a balanced integration with traditional methods of teaching is necessary for maximum efficacy and fair access.
