Abstract

In this chapter, the author offers suggestions to help in determining the priority of listening materials both for self-access Foreign Language Learning (FLL) centres and for home/self-study from the standpoint of view of autonomous intermediate language learners. To be able to make accurate, objective, reliable, and valid suggestions, firstly the author describes and then re-categorises the types of listening materials from the point of availability. Later, he accounts for some main features that he thinks pedagogically and psychologically need to be considered in giving priority to listening materials in terms of FLL and autonomous intermediate language learners. Finally, the result of the comparison is analysed, and some suggestions and hypotheses regarding their priority are made.
