Abstract

Although listening skill is considered as a tough skill, there are some ways to practice or improve listening skill such as watching English programs, movies, listening to English radio and native speaker. Furthermore, Herron, York, Corrie, and Cole (2006) stated that students who practice their listening skill through videos can improve their listening comprehension. Using videos in English learning surely can attract students’ interest to watch the videos. However, motivation also plays a pivotal role in language learning, within each, motivated learners being more likely to attain their educational objectives compared to those lacking motivation. This research is intended to explore EFL students’ attitudes in term of motivation towards the use of conversation video on listening performance. A ten-item questionnaire was distributed to 36 students. The findings shows a high consistency noted within the intrinsic and extrinsic motivation category (α = .663), which indicates that most participants perceive positive attitudes regarding intrinsic and extrinsic motivation towards using conversation videos to enhance listening performance.
