I, too, have resurrected dictation from pedagogical obscurity. I teach a group of Spanish-speakers at the intermediate level of an adult ESL program. I spend a lot of time developing their aural comprehension of smaller units, focusing often on reduction problems that are complicated by L1 vs. L2 grammatical and phonological differences.
