dc.description.abstractThe thesis titled “The use of songs to improve listening skills in A2 students”. This project was carried out in Riobamba city at Unidad Educativa La Salle, involving 29 first-year high school students. The main objective was to improve students’ listening skills in English through the use of songs. The general objective of this research is: To improve listening skills through songs, in A2 level students from La Salle Riobamba. The specific objectives are: Students will be able to identify and understand words from various songs in English, focusing on common A2 level vocabulary. Students will develop the ability to recognize the correct pronunciation in English songs. Students will improve their listening skill by integrated pre-listening, while listening and post listening activities. The study addresses students' difficulties in understanding pronunciation, vocabulary, and listening comprehension in English, despite teachers’ efforts. It is justified because: A2 students typically have short attention spans (10–20 minutes), they are not often exposed to English, and traditional methods like memorization are not effective for long-term learning, students can feel overwhelmed when learning a new language, and lack of motivation may arise if challenges are not considered in lesson planning, songs enhance memory retention due to their rhythm and repetition, and also promote cultural awareness. A mixed-methods approach (quantitative and qualitative) was used, with Experimental and QuasiExperimental designs. Data collection techniques included pre-tests and post-tests, classroom observations, surveys, and performance tasks, focusing on vocabulary development through gamification.
