Increasing Lecturing Logic-Based Learning Improves
Listening Skills
| Dedi Heryadi1 | Ristina Siti Sundari2,*|
INTRODUTION
Listening to the lecturer's explanation is still a cornerstone in the interaction of teaching and
learning at Siliwangi University Tasikmalaya. According to the Internal Quality Audit
results at Siliwangi University in 2020, two-thirds of the time, assigned lectures are available
for students to listen to the material. Such situations are consistent with the findings of
(Cohen, 1996; Ghaed et al., 2018), which state that "hearing plays an essential part in
communication, taking up 40-50% of the total time spent on communicating, speaking 25-
30%, reading 11-16%, and writing approximately 9%." Even though listening activities
account for most communication, few people are concerned with developing their listening
abilities.
Many believe listening is simple since it needs passive action, even though (Idrissova et
al., 2015). The term "passive skill" when used for listening is misleading. This misperception
may originate from the fact that learners appear to sit silently in the language lab, listen to
pre-recorded conversations, and write responses to the same questions as the oral stimulus.
Therefore listening teaching has gotten much attention. Listening is an active and
interpretative process. The message is formed in the interactional space between participants
rather than fixed (Hue, 2019; Idrissova et al., 2015). (Idrissova et al., 2015) described
complicated listening activities and how the hearing comprehension process comprises three
sequential steps: receiving, attending, and comprehending. Responding and remembering
may follow comprehending since listeners may reply immediately or remember the message
to respond later.
Each level of the listening process involves significant mental efforts. Very obvious in
the phases of attendance and comprehension (including responding and remembering). At
the attending stage, the listener must concentrate on the subject matter contained in the
language's linguistically organized and integrated sounds. Listeners must consider
interpreting, assessing, and reacting correctly to the conversation's substance during the
comprehension stage. Listeners must have a clear mind during the remembering stage to
recall all of the conversation's details. The sophistication of listening actions, as stated by

(Solak & Erdem, 2016) Responding and remembering may follow comprehending since
listeners may reply immediately or remember the message to respond later.
Because the listening process requires a high level of thinking ability, it is vital to increase
pupils' thinking abilities to improve their listening skills. This capacity may be developed by
habituation to think logically. Logic is a technique of thinking that results in decisions.
Syllogism is the approach employed (deduction). According to (Bailey, 2011), "a deduction
is discourse (logos) in which, some things having been assumed, something distinct from
those assumed results of necessity since they are so." Each of the supposed items' is a premise
(protasis) of the argument, and the result of necessity is the conclusion (superasma).
Thinking efforts to determine from the content being listened to frequently occur during the
listening activity's attending, comprehending, and reacting stages. For example, an English
learning forum in America called American English State (2015) emphasized that everyone
must listen attentively to find crucial facts by listening to low-grade pupils utilizing puzzles.
These puzzles are fun and challenging for students to practice speaking, review vocabulary,
and use social skills connected to collaboration and building listening and critical thinking
abilities.
This study will address whether logic-based learning helps develop listening and lecturing
abilities. To address this issue, Siliwangi University students were studied using the
“Listening Teaching” course in the form of online lectures.
RESEARCH METHODS
This study employs research and development procedures to go through the following
phases: (1) a preliminary study of the theoretical and empirical thorough inspection to gain
a grounding in logic-based learning model development; (2) the establishment of a logic-
based learning model; (3) the field test model is followed by analysis and revision of the
model, (4) model validation, and (5) model dissemination. Diagram 1 depicts an early model
that can be developed.

Diagram 1. Early Model of Logic-based Listening Teaching in Lecturing
The early model must first be evaluated. Field tests with the model were conducted in
seven phases to acquire a ready-made model: 1) conducting early tests of keyword
identification, making proposition-based keywords, and responding to lecture material
content; 2) carrying out the learning process through procedures that have been designed;
and 3) carrying out final tests of comprehending the critical keywords in lecture material,
making proposition-based keywords, and responding to the discourse content in listening to
the lector.
The validation testing model must be repeated to create a consistent logic-based learning
model. The model validation test is carried out by repeating a field test on a group of students
with the same ordinary level in group classes. This validation test phase follows the same
processes as the previous tests. The findings are examined and debated. The validation
process model's outcomes were acquired from logic-based learning models and were
disseminated or published. The distribution takes the form of a seminar attended by
Siliwangi University academics and published in the journal. The logic-based learning
syntax that has shown useful in developing lecture listening abilities (Dudi, 2022).
The body of the essay contains a detailed overview of the research study. It covers the
issue description, the technique utilized to solve the problem, the recommended solution to
the problem, and the conclusion of the fundamental research. The paper's
paragraphs/sections should be justified and neatly ordered. We welcome manuscripts written
in English and the third person. The words utilized in the body range from 2000 to 8000
words, or 5 to 20 pages. Table: I contain page layout details.

Data Collection and Analysis Techniques
As a result of logic-based learning, the primary data required is a lecturing listening skill
(comprehending the main keywords in lecture material, forming keyword-based
propositions, and reacting to the content of the lecturing material). Furthermore, the leading
data includes support data (secondary data), such as information on students' activities while
learning as well as students' thoughts regarding the course that was taken. In order to gather
data, measuring techniques are used. To implement the data collecting approach on lecture
listening ability, use measurement equipment in test form as follows.

Prepare an instrument for observing students' activities while the learning process is in
progress to collect supporting data. When the lecture is in progress, the objects noticed
include inventiveness and sincerity. Then, to learn more about the pupils' motivation, they
will participate in a pattern of a logic application using an interview instrument. There are
two types of data collected: quantitative data and qualitative data. On a scale of 10 to 100,
quantitative data reflects the score of lecturing listening skills. Qualitative data is a
description of students' activities throughout the lecture process, as well as data on student's
thoughts about the lecture that is taking place. Proponent data is quantitative data.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The study results in the syntax of logic-based learning activities and students' views on the
learning that has occurred, as well as a brief description of students' lecture listening ability
scores from the field and validation test results.
Students' actions were observed, including sincerity and originality in learning. 72% (54
votes) of the 75 students who became the subject of the study displayed serious learning,
coupled with a creative activity assigned by the professor. At the same time, the remaining
38% (21) display less seriousness even though they can do the assignment. The ten random
interviews with students regarding their opinions on the lecture (logic-based learning
paradigm) show that they are motivated and not saturated. The following table summarizes
the results of the field test assessment/test and validation of the logic-based learning model
in developing listening skills in lecturers.
According to (Justice et al., 2018) the following problems in listening comprehension
exist: a lack of control over the speed at which speakers speak, an inability to get things
repeated, the listener's limited vocabulary, a failure to recognize "signals," a problem of
interpretation, an inability to concentrate (topic, effort, technical problems), and an
established learning habit or listening perfectionism. Poor equipment quality, lack of focus,
unclear pronunciation, speed rate, unfamiliar terms and topics, and psychological difficulty,
according to (Justice et al., 2018). These issues fell under several categories of Listening
Comprehension issues, including physical environment, lack of focus, speaker,
psychological features, and listening material.
According to (Hue, 2019) listening is one of the four fundamental abilities taught in
language learning and is not a passive activity. Listening is a mental activity in which
language and non-linguistic information is processed by some cognitive systems: attention,
perception, and memory, such as a pupil paying attention to and attempting to understand
information that a teacher or anchor is telling. He will remember the knowledge before
applying it to specific goals. When a learner is paying attention and attempting to perceive
information, he actively processes it using his language and non-linguistic knowledge. " To
improve kids' listening abilities, intensive mentoring is required. "guiding learners through
the listening process gives them the knowledge they need to complete a listening task and
puts them in charge of their learning."(Gilakjani & Sabouri, 2017)
Logic is a science that seeks to distinguish between good and faulty reasoning concepts.
It seeks to construct criteria (rules or procedures) for distinguishing between excellent and
bad arguments." (Shadrikov et al., 2016). (Hidayah et al., 2017; Perbowosari et al., 2020;
Suralaga, 2021) noted, "The term logic derives from the Greek word logos. The range of
senses possessed by logos may allude to the problems experienced in articulating the nature
and extent of logic. "sentence," "discourse," "reason," "rule," "ratio," and "account"
(particularly the account of the meaning of a statement), "rational principle," and "definition"
are partial translations of logos. Logic has been described as the "laws of mind," "the norms
of sound reasoning," and "the standards of valid argumentation that usage of particular words
called 'logical constants,'" "truths (true propositions) based purely on the meanings of the
phrases they include," and so on. These two points of view agree that logic is a rule in
thinking that produces the proper argument.
According to table 3, the logic-based learning treatment is the field test as a model test
phase model to look for areas that need to be updated and the validation test to verify the
efficacy of the model that has been amended. The findings of measures concerning lecture
listening abilities were collected in the field test for the first group of students, which
included 30 participants. Listening skills (including identifying keywords in lecture material,
making propositions based on keywords, and responding to lecture matter content) before

treatment received an average score of 24.4 in the shallow category, whereas after treatment,
received an average score of 66.4 in the excellent category. The results of the field-testing
phase serve as feedback for the revision model. The stages are changed in logic-based
learning model syntax, with a phase of directing still insufficient to warrant continued action.

After updating the model in response to the analytical results, the model validation was
checked by conducting learning therapy for the second set of 35 participants. Before being
treated, the average lecture listening skill (detecting keywords of lecture matter, generating
propositions based on keywords, and responding to lecture matter content) received an
average score of 22.7 in the poor group. Following treatment, an average score of 74.3 in the
good category is possible. It demonstrates that guidance is required for the phases of logic-
based learning. (Dudi, 2022; Tanshzil, 2012; Theresa, 2018) both felt that supervision is
required for learning because functioning is petrifying for sophisticated student learning.
The data is utilized as the foundation for successfully expressing the logic-based learning
model in improving students' lecture listening abilities, such as detecting lecture matter
keywords, forming propositions based on keywords, and responding to lecture matter
material. The evaluation of the logic-based learning model with cognitive and
communicative learning theory, cooperative learning theory, student active learning theory,
and also behavioristic learning theory can work together. This conclusion confirms one of
the learning theory's assumptions, which stipulates that during the learning process,
teachers/lecturers should be able to cooperate on various learning theories adapted to their
requirements. Collaborating with learning theories might result in a very diversified
presentation, encouraging students to be more imaginative, sincere, and driven to study to
prevent saturation.
At the university, the logic theory is employed exceptionally efficiently as a technique
for learning implementation. These findings support the idea that the theoretical backdrop
of indiscipline is essential in shaping the learning technique, as proven by the Logic-Based
Learning model adopted in the students' FKIP of the first semester at Siliwangi University
Tasikmalaya. The understanding of listening nature, learning process nature, and logic
theory were used as a basis (method) to develop a learning model at the university.
Thought, hidden symbolic reactions to either internal (from inside) or exogenous stimuli
(arising from the environment). Thought, or thinking, serves as a bridge between internal
activity and external stimuli. (Shadrikov et al., 2016) "Having seen cognition through the

interaction between an object and its properties, we discovered just one component of
thought," argue the critics. It is vital to remember that, as previously said, perception has a
functional aspect, and the properties of a seen object always have a functional nature.
Thought reflects objects and qualities and is endowed with a specific content articulated in
terms of the observed attribute's meaning. In other words, thinking, which bears a certain
functional content, ensures the link between a characteristic and a picture (Shadrikov et al.,
2016).
Logic or cognition consists primarily of three elements: the idea or word comprehension,
proposition construction, and conclusion (Hidayah et al., 2017; Perbowosari et al., 2020;
Suralaga, 2021). Words are a superb location to start our investigation of thinking. Logic, as
we presently understand it, is primarily concerned with how we assess arguments.
Conversely, arguments are made up of assertions, which are made up of words. The most
fundamental statement in Aristotelian logic is a proposition, which is a whole phrase that
states something. A proposition should have at least three words: a subject (a word
identifying a substance), a predicate (a word name a property), and a linking verb, known as
a copula by logicians (Latin, for "bond" or "connection"). Consider the straightforward
statement, "Socrates is wise." Socrates is the subject, wisdom is the predicate, and the word
"is" (the copula) connects Socrates and wisdom in a single affirmation. Syllogism was used
to derive the findings. In terms of logical form, a syllogism is an argument composed of
three categorical statements, two premises (which give out the evidence), and a conclusion
(that follows logically from the premises). (Kirubhakaran, 2021; Komarov, 2019) contended
that there are five elements of practical thinking: a deep understanding of thinking, igniting
insight, constantly formulating and raising questions, seeing the flow of ideas (look back and
look forward), building on the previous four elements and is about practicing practical
thinking, becoming a lifelong learner, and constantly striving for improvement.
The first semester of students at FKIP Siliwangi University Tasikmalaya is exciting and
motivating, with logic-based teaching. It happened because they felt and realized that the
competencies gained through Logic-Based Lectures are essential for life; then, the grain
material is methodically organized; and supported by various learning implementation
systems. These findings confirm the learning idea that lecturers must offer learning materials
needed in learners' lives in order to improve learning motivation, and the organization of
learning material presentation must have a good entanglement.
The following findings must be disclosed such as (1) Students are very suitable given a
lecture with a logic-based learning model, intelligent, and have a high learning motivation;
(2) The student's age and gender disappeared to affect their success in the following learning
model significantly. The findings, particularly the age and gender of learners, did not
contradict the ideas of psychologists such as Alfred Binet, recognized for his expertise in
intelligence testing. Piaget is well-known for their skill in the maturation of cognitive stages,
constantly associating someone's thinking abilities with age. Their research demonstrated
that age correlates with growing cognitive maturity. However, the outcomes of this study,
which included data from students aged 18 to 20, show that this learning paradigm did not
affect their listening abilities.
Based on these findings, the logic-based lecture format is appropriate for college-level
students. Further study on secondary schooling is required. For example, in boarding school,
listening skills (self-reliance and self-discipline) are better accomplished through the
habituation technique, counseling, reward and punishment methods, and an ideal way of the
priest and the cleric (Tanshzil, 2012). Then, in the preschoolers' neighborhood, the
development of prosocial conduct was found to be appropriate by employing a game-based
learning paradigm (Brown, 2000; Solak & Erdem, 2016).

CONCLUSION
The research technique and development phase included developing a conceptual model,
experimenting with empirical models, and verifying the model to create a logic-based
learning model. The phases (syntax) of learning with the models are as follows: a) listening
to lectures with complete attention from the lecturers, b) understanding the keywords in the
learning material made in the form of a mind mapping, and c) making propositions based on
mind mapping, d) responding to the content of the lecture matter with, e) discussing each
student's work result, and f) providing unique guidance to students who face difficulties. The
interaction of the logic-based learning model system, which can improve lecture listening
abilities, had an influence.
There are four recommendations based on the data and research conclusion. First,
lecturers should underlie logic theory in fulfilling expository learning (speaking) since it also
supports the development of literary character in addition to boosting knowledge of lecture
material. Second, university lectures were more likely to be expository (model), focusing on
accomplishing the knowledge and skill growth targets. Because it does not meet the demands
of today's life and future, understanding should be abandoned. Third, it is time for lecturers
to establish a model that may create an environment in forming the character by the demands
of life by working on the idea that the lecture development may trigger. Fourth, for the study
findings to be helpful information in the construction of lecture models in universities, the
researcher and observer of learning might expand further in the form of research on more
extensive data sources with varying degrees of education.

Children require Guidance & Counselling to discover and develop their educational, vocational and psychological potentialities. School plays a critical role in bringing out the best in them. Counselling teaches children how to control and deal with emotional conflict and personal problems. Counseling at a young age might assist a youngster in overcoming bad ideas that may have been instilled in him or her by peers in school and college. A child’s whole growth and development can only occur in an environment that is suitable for proper teaching and learning. Educational planners give close attention to all educational services that can improve teaching and learning in schools to achieve the educational goals. Guidance and counselling services in schools are thought to help establish, assess, and improve educational programmes, as well as improve teaching, teacher competence and lower expenses for students. As a result, the main focus of this study is on the value of outstanding school guidance and counselling services. It includes role of guidance and counselling in schools, guidance and counselling for effective teaching and learning, aims and benefits for students of effective guidance and counselling According to relevant studies and literature, individuals should be educated to comprehend, respect, embrace guidance and counselling services because of the roles they play in inefficient teaching and learning provided in schools and other educational institutions.

Assessing listening is the process of assessing the spoken text through the auditory insight. It requires the ability to recognize the spoken input with the auditory capacity and the knowledge of spoken language. The task and the activities are served in six listening types (reactive, intensive, selective, responsive, extensive and interactive listening) and the indicative answer is encoded by particular listening type focus on. While technology as vehicle to assess the learners’ listening skill, that by using the technology much more spoken input are established by native-speaker and teachers’ own record is used any.

The concept of thought has always been central to understanding the nature of human thinking in psychological studies. However, the main question of what is thought still remains unanswered. The origins of the issue lie in the definition of the original unit of analysis, i.e. in the definition of what lies at the heart of image, belief, imagination, speech, consciousness, and thinking. Based on available studies, results of which were reflected in recent publicationsit was argued that thought should be such an original unit of analysis. This article explores the concept of thought based on cognitive constructs and the neurophysiological correlates of mental activity. The present study is addressed to discuss issues dealing with the nature of thought, its content and structure, and the relationships between indicators of substantial thought and the neurobiological correlates of the process of thinking. Structurally thought is based on needs, emotions and intensions, and as such, thought defines the substantive essence of an image and also represents consciousness. Coherence of thoughts and consciousness, their integrity reflect the connectivity of things from the external world in their entirety. Thus, the ability to generate thoughts and build relationships within the stream of consciousness characterizes the human mind. It is shown that thought as a cognitive substance emerges from desires and experiences, as well as from conscious perception. Taken together, the described psychological and neurophysiological assumptions open up new horizons for research into human mental activity, thinking abilities and consciousness.

The purpose of our study is to investigate works of scholars about the problems of listening and speaking in learning foreign languages. We try to analyze the difficulties in doing listening and speaking exercises in mixed level groups focusing on “New English File” (Intermediate) textbook. “New English File” presents different kinds of listening and speaking tasks in order to improve all four skills (listening, reading, speaking, and writing). In our study we refer to Wenden's statement (1986), who noted that we need to find out listening problems in order to improve listening skill. According to it, we discovered difficulties not only in listening, but also in speaking of students in mixed level groups. These difficulties helped us to find the ways of improving students’ abilities to listen to authentic materials and apply them in communication. Problems in listening and speaking in mixed level groups were taken from the results of questionnaire. Students’ questionnaire determined the effective ways of using role plays and various activities in practice. The result of our study showed that the textbook was worse using in mixed level groups. Different creative activities in English classes motivate students to learn foreign languages, and improve knowledge.
