Sažetak
The paper deals with listening as a skill in foreign language learning;
in this case, on a bachelor degree of the Italian language studies. It is a
skill that has often been neglected, while being a path to successful foreign
language learning, together with other three skills. The objective of
the paper is to get an insight into the students’ awareness about their
methods of listening at the Italian language practice classes. The research
was conducted according to the MALQ questionnaire (Metacognitive
Awareness Listening Questionnaire) along with the additional
two open-ended questions. The results show, on one hand, a positive
attitude of the students towards listening and the first impression of
them being successful listeners. On the other hand, however, the analysis,
in particular of the open-ended questions, reveals that they do not
regulate well the strategies necessary for the successful listening. We
conclude that such a questionnaire is a useful tool in becoming aware
of the problem and in thinking about the listening strategies, where the
role of the teacher is to help students consciously develop strategies and
subsequently become independent in their implementation.
