Listening (ILA, 1996): the process of receiving, constructing meaning from, and responding to spoken and/or nonverbal messages


Measuring the Effects of Listening on Learning, Earning, and Healing, October 19-22, 2006

Listening Forum Update

Minutes | Studies | Updates

Welcome to the special section dedicated to the Fall Listening Forum. In October 2006, Rockhurst University, in conjunction with the International Listening Association (ILA), co-sponsored the Fall Listening Forum: Measuring the Effects of Listening on Learning, Earning, and Healing. Over 85 participants from five different countries registered for the event in the hopes of establishing the Listening Research Agenda within the contexts of Business, Education, Healthcare, Religion/Spirituality, and Theory/Research. ILA has generously dedicated this portion of the website to the outcomes of the Forum.

Context groups were led by three to four context leads, individuals that are true leaders in research, training, and listening! They were charged with gaining group consensus in a variety of areas, including identifying instruments used to measure listening, what is currently known about listening, what is not known about listening that needs to be known, and designing and carrying out research projects. In this section of the ILA website, you’ll see the fruits of our labors.

Specifically, you’ll have access to the instrument list that identifies known measures of listening, running notes from each context group, and final research project proposals. Please be patient as we develop this section step by step). In the future, the International Journal of Listening will print the State of the Context article for each context, as well as the research studies.

It is our hope that this Forum will assist listening scholars with furthering what we know about listening.
