ANALYTICAL LISTENING IN PROBLEM SOLVING

Background Information:
Every day, people listen to different sounds. People do not just listen but also analyze what they
have heard from someone or somewhere. The ideas are processed based on what a person listened to
and how it was analyzed, which becomes a powerful tool to solve a problem.

Let us have an example. There is a person who says, “You can do it!”. The statement itself shows
a friendly approach, but the way he said it could convey different meanings. Through analytical
listening, you might notice that there is a problem existing between you and that person. After analyzing
the ideas,therefore, you will do something to solve them.

Analytical listening is the ability not only to understand what may be heard from people or things,
but also to analyze the simple and complex ideas to reach the logical connection. This skill is one of the
ways to solve a problem. Today, due to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, people choose to hear
the news so that they will be updated with the safety precautionary measures given by the Department
of Health (DOH), total case of people infected by the virus total number recovered from the virus,
actions from the government on how they deal with the pandemic, economic stability of the country
amid the health crisis, and so on. Aside from the news, people try to use music to relax since it gives a
feeling that may help them from the pressure caused by the pandemic, such as encountering
challenges in finding a job, coping with online or modular learning, and building positive thinking amid
the tough circumstances.

According to a study conducted by Niveditha (2014), 72% of people in Karnataka, India prefers
to listen to the Frequency Modulation (FM) radio at their homes. In addition, the study came up with a
result that people in nature used to be alone listening to FM radio. The researcher evolution was
enhanced in 1934 due to the great depression experienced in every part of the world. Moreover, it was
stated in the study that unemployment and many businesses became tremendous struggles to the
people. In line with this study and with the current pandemic everyone is dealing with, analytical
listening is a great help to people staying at homedue to the present community quarantine to think of
the solutions to their problems. Being alone while listening to a song or news can bring brilliant ideas
and cope with depression.

In this lesson, a song is used since it actively engages someone’s analytical listening skills. A
songis a literary piece wherein we use our sense of hearing to understand its meaning. The message of
the song may be a great help for you to widen your point of view, which can maximize the ideas in
solvinga problem.

Aside from the song, one of the additional techniques employed in this lesson is news. After
hearing news, the students can clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of analytical listening in solving a
problem by answering the given questions.

Imagine
John Lennon

Imagine there's no heaven

It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or…
