The next step of the experiment was the treatment stage that lasted for 8 weeks (2 months). The participants of the study received the treatment in two sessions a week. Since there has been a move away from teaching strategies separately towards embedding them into the language teaching curriculum (Chamot et al., 1994), the metacognitive training employed in this study was integrated into the listening course of the experimental group. An attempt was made to select the appropriate tasks from the listening sources to teach the metacognitive strategies introduced by Vandergrift (1997) as planning, monitoring, evaluation and problem identification strategies. In order to see whether students have taken all the steps needed for a successful listening before they began to listen, the first part ofthe listening performance checklist was completed by the participants after the pre-listening activities. After listening and making the attempt to perform the listening tasks, students filled in the second part to assess their performance systematically. This self evaluation allowed learners to adapt their strategies for the next tasks. There was a space for a written reflection at the bottom of the checklist that encouraged learners to personally reflect on the process, and note down what they would do to promote their performance the next time. Cognitive Academic Language Learning Approach (CALLA) strategy training phases were adapted for each listening task. To make sure if the instructor was following the phases of the filled in the teaching learning strategies checklist in each CALLA model and to maintain consistency, the instruct lesson. Metacognitive Awareness Listening Questionnaire (MALQ), a item questionnaire was utilized as a strate training tool The items included in the MALQ were discussed with learners related to each listening task to keep students' metacognitive strategy awareness fresh during the training and to help apply, identify. and learning strategies in a systematic way.
