I hear you but I'm not listening!

What is the difference between listening and hearing? Well in this class I have learnt that there are so many differences between listening and hearing. Do we notice sometimes when our mother start nagging because we always woke up late or did not know how to wash dishes and how to cook? Does it can we consider as listening or hearing over our mother’s nag? 



Listening is when we receiving the message and started to construct the meaning to give our responses through verbal or nonverbal. But for hearing, we only receive the message that being received to us but we did not construct any meaning and did not response to it. Anyways, most of us did not know that actually we have variety types of listening, active listening, empathic listening, critical listening and listening for enjoyment. The differences is where we listen with a purpose, listening with a purpose and attempting to understand the other person, listen with evaluating accuracy and listening for enjoyment to relax such as listening to music. During the lecture in class, which technique do we use?  


 In class lecture, students would use three types of listening, active listening, empathic listening and critical listening where we use to receive the message and keep it in our brain memory and start to response to it by understand what have been told to you. Other than that, for memory we have working memory, short-term memory and long-term memory. For working memory is where we interpret and assigns the meaning to the stimuli. For short-term memory, is when temporary storage happened, when the message received, we tend to forget it very easily. For long-term memory, is when the message revived is permanently in the storage space.
