| Abstract | ||||
| This study examines the effect of using English podcasts to enhance second secondary EFL students’ listening skills in El-Shaheed Al-Raed Mostafa Yousry Omeira Secondary School for Girls in Egypt. The major purpose of the study is to boost the students’ listening comprehension and to deal with specific classroom issues that the researchers faced. Forty-two students have participated in a single-group pre-test and posttest assessment as well as a satisfaction inquiry by the end of the experiment. The pre-test assessment was carried out to determine the students’ basic listening skills. Following that, the test subjects were exposed to the “BBC Learning English” podcast as a procedure to enhance their listening skills. A post-test was subsequently conducted to evaluate the students’ listening comprehension development. The researchers employed the use of tables to visually display the disparities between the responses provided by the students. The results suggest a large variation in the scores of the group during the post-test interval. The study also proposes that the podcast had an important effect on the development of listening comprehension which is demonstrated by the post-test’s better results when compared with the pre-test’s results. | ||||
