Abstract
The present study aims at investigating the role of listening products in enhancing EFL students' oral performance at the Department of english,Larbi Ben M'Hidi university. It is meant to answer the following question: Are oral expression teachers and second year LMD students in the department of english at Oum-El-Bouaghi university aware of the importance of listening products in enhancing EFL students' oral performance? In this research, a descriptive method is followed via two questionnaires. The first one is administered to a sample of ten oral expression teachers in the english department at Larbi Ben M'Hidi university, whereas the second one is addressed to second year LMD students at the same university. On the grounds of the data collected from both questionnaires, the results obtained have demonstrated that the listening materials can influence EFL students' oral performance. Therefore, all the teachers proved to be aware about the interconnection between the listening products and the improvement of the oral performance. Nearly all the students claimed to be conscious of the importance of exposing EFL students to spoken materials to improve their oral performance. On the basis of these findings, the research hypothesis has been confirmed.
