Audio books have been around since
the time of the phonograph. Yet most people will associate
them with cassette tapes as well as CD's. With the advancement of
technology it is now possible to download and listen to your
favourite Audio Books much the same way as you would your favourite
music tracks.
Unabridged audio books are word for
word readings of a book. While abridged audio books have
had text edited out by the abridger. Audio books can also
come as fully dramatized versions of the printed book, sometimes
calling upon a complete cast, with music, and sound effects. Audio
books have been used as an aid to teach children to read, and
have been proved to increase overall reading comprehension as well
as pronunciation. Audio Books are also considered an
indispensable resource amongst the blind
community. Both the United States and Canadian
Governments have realized these facts, and Freely supply Audio
Books to the Blind Communities in their respective
Nations.
Audio books are also used for
education. Self-help audio books range from public speaking to
learning meditation. Their general goal however is always to
develop one's skills to be more happy and/or successful in life.
While some focus on a particular skill, others aim to shift the
listener's life direction entirely.
Audio books are considered valuable learning
tools because of their format.
Unlike with traditional books, one can learn from an audio book
while doing other tasks, although it should be noted that this can
veer attention from the primary task. Such multitasking is feasible
when doing mechanical tasks that do not require much thought and
have only very minor or no chance of an emergency arising. Such
tasks include doing the laundry and exercising indoors, among other
things.
Strategies that maximize the benefits derived from listening to
an audio book include:
- Replaying: Depending upon
ones degree of attention and interest, it is often necessary to
listen to segments of an audio book more than once to allow the
material to be understood and retained satisfactorily. Replaying
may be done immediately, and also after extended periods of
time.
- Learning: A person may
listen to an audio book usually an unabridged one while following
along in the actual written book. This helps the person to learn
words that they may not have learnt correctly if they
were to just read the book by itself. As this allows them to see
the spelling of the words as well as hearing the correct
pronounciation of the words. This is especially true with Foreign
Launguages.
