Abstract
Abstract: Undoubtedly podcast on the internet is absolutely beneficial to support the learning of EFL listening in the senior high school, because it carried the target language needed by students. The podcasts have been renewed, and they were not only comprised of audio, but also script, working sheet and can be the most appropriate choice to furnish the incompleteness of the teaching material. The present study was aimed to explore podcast effects on EFL learners’ listening comprehension, and to identify the students’ interest towards podcast in the process of teaching listening comprehension. This study involved sixty students chosen from the eleventh grade students of the science department at SMU Negeri 1 Luwu in 2017/2018 academic years. They divided into two groups, namely the experimental and control group. The experimental group taught by applying the learnenglishteens.britishcouncil.org/skills/listening-skills-practice- podcast, and the control group taught by using English textbook adapted from the 2013 new curriculum revised in the year of 2017. The listening comprehension test and the open-ended questions administered to fulfil the objectives of the study. The quantitative data were analysed by utilizing paired and independent samples t-test, and the qualitative data was analysed through an open coding technique by identifying, naming, and describing the phenomena of the gathered data. The quantitative results indicated that the use of podcast was more effective than the use of non-podcast. It was proven by the value of the mean score from both of the groups (53.73 ˃ 37,46). The difference (df) of those two mean scores was statistically significant based on the the t - test value at 0.05 significance level. The probability value was smaller than significant level (0.000 < 0.05). In other words, the result of hypothesis testing found that t-value = 4.791 was higher than t-table = 2.000 (p=0.05, df =58). Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. In addition, the result of open-ended question analysis highlighted that podcast was attractive in the teaching and learning of English as a foreign language listening comprehension. Keywords: Podcast, Listening Comprehension, Learning Interest
