In conclusion, developing listening material based on a bottom-up strategy, researchers received a positive response from first semester students because it could help them learn to listen for general communication. In addition, researchers also use the bottom up strategy to develop this listening material, so that it can help make it easier for students to learn to listen for general communication.
