An Empirical Study of the Effect of Phonetic Teaching on the Listening Ability of Marine College Students—Based on SPSS Software

Taking sophomores in a marine college as the subjects, the aim of this study is to analyze the effects of phonetic teaching on students’ listening ability as well as the correlation between the level of students’ pronunciation and listening ability. After the experimental teaching, data are collected and input into Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) software. Descriptive statistics of the data, independent samples t-test, paired samples t-test and Pearson correlation analysis are carried out. The results show that the listening ability of the students in the experimental class with phonetic training is significantly different from those in the control class, and the students’ pronunciation level and listening ability is significantly and positively correlated.
