What is Active Listening: Learning Through Interviewing about?

Active Listening is a concept borrowed from counseling and conflict resolution; it makes for better interviews and better interviewers. Students entering the workplace can effectively use Active Listening in many aspects of their work from science writing, podcast, and radio hosting to simply being better colleagues. It can also be a useful skill in research and evaluation.This activity helps students to understand the importance of Active Listening as they begin to practice it in class and beyond. Students learn about interviewing techniques with Active Listening at the core and, after completing this activity, understand the key aspects of a journalistic interview. The students will learn about the key aspects of Active Listening: (i) paying attention (ii) showing that you are listening (iii) providing feedback (iv) deferring judgment and (v) responding appropriately. Teaching Context We have used this activity with third-year undergraduate students studying the module "Wildlife Film and Media" but variations of it are also used for students studying the MSc in Science Communication at UWE Bristol, particularly in the "Writing Science" and "Science on Air and on Screen" modules.
