Abstract

The types of student engagement that affect students’ listening skills in independent learning are the crucial focus of this case study. A significant concern is the lack of students’ capability to note unknown words that are slightly beyond their knowledge. Students, often referred to as “Generation Z” or “Gen Z,” tend to summarize native speaker statements and copy-paste them into their paragraphs as their version of summarization, although many do summarize the statements using their own words. A plethora of methods can be used for students to improve their note-taking quality, such as abbreviations, classification, and symbolization. These methods exercise students’ cognitive abilities to connect and represent abstract ideas that they did not know before. The researcher collected data on the note-taking quality of basic listening students, examining the effects of three types of engagement. The effects such as the students’ behavior when using their learning strategies to do independent and active listening, the cognitive side as students predict the correct answer with the materials that are slightly beyond their knowledge, and then the students’ self-awareness to finish the assignment. This was achieved through five times class observations, and interviews. The structured data collection began with observations in two classes, Basic Listening A and B. The researcher then used these experiences to guide the creation of five-minute interview questions. Finally, six students were selected for a five-minute interview session. The final product of this research was coded using thematic analysis with a deductive approach based on interview results. According to the thematic analysis, three students—Angelia, Revata, and Stefanny—excelled in behavioral, cognitive, and affective engagements, demonstrating their ability to note information by classifying items from basic to advanced forms, symbolizing points with shapes and pictures to represent abstract ideas, and highlighting strong self-awareness to complete the material driven by intrinsic motivation despite challenging content. Another student, Cindy, is unique in her preference for studying difficult materials; she enjoys predicting correct answers to podcast questions, which boosts her self-confidence. In contrast, Lutcille and Amelia struggle with podcast content; one still dictates the same words as the native speaker while the other has begun paraphrasing statements in her own words. To minimize these issues, teachers need to introduce new note-taking strategies by teaching students how to create mind maps or use the Cornell method. These approaches can stimulate students’ cognitive abilities to connect unknown ideas and improve their note-taking quality.
