Questão 96874

Evaluate the following assertions about metacognitive strategies and their role in L2 listening comprehension.

I. The strategy of 'selective attention', where a listener decides in advance to focus only on specific information (e.g., dates and names) during a lecture, is a metacognitive strategy classified under the 'planning' phase of listening.

II. When a learner, realizing they have misunderstood a segment of a conversation, actively uses a clarification strategy such as asking 'Could you please repeat that?', they are engaging in 'monitoring', a key metacognitive process.

III. 'Self-evaluation', which involves reflecting on the effectiveness of one's listening process after the fact and identifying sources of difficulty, is a crucial metacognitive strategy for long-term improvement.

IV. The cognitive strategy of 'elaboration' (connecting new information to prior knowledge) is functionally identical to the metacognitive strategy of 'self-management' (controlling one's focus and emotional response).

Which assertions are correct?
