The document summarizes a study on using video materials to teach listening skills to university students. The study found that using videos improved students' listening abilities and led to positive attitudes towards learning English. Specifically, students who were taught with videos performed better on listening tests and responded positively in a post-study questionnaire. The study concluded that videos can effectively develop English listening comprehension when used as part of language instruction.
