 | | There are three approaches to listening: interactive (listening to a message and doing something as a consequence) and one-way communication or non-interactive (just listening and retaining the message, in activities such as conversations overheard, public address announcements, recorded messages, etc.) and self-talk. |
 | | Listening to radio and watching TV and films, public performances, lectures, religious services, etc., generally reflect non-interactive listening. |
 | | Listening is important for casual chats, face to face encounters, telephone messages, for enjoyment of radio and television programs, formal lectures, and many other activities. |
