Unit 1 introduces listening as an active process rather than a passive skill. Students learn to distinguish between hearing and listening by examining attention, perception, memory, and prior experiences that shape meaning-making. Through videos, knowledge checks, and applied activities, students practice the stages of listening and reflect on real-world communication. The unit concludes with an analysis of a real-life listening scenario, helping students develop practical skills they can use in academic, professional, and personal contexts.
