This listening activity playlist compiled by the University of Oregon's Centre for Applied Second Language Studies is ideal for independent learning for students both outside and inside the classroom.  The YouTube videos consist of the following nine topics:

• Summarize What You Heard with A Friend;
• Research a Topic Before Listening ;
• During Listening: Document What You Understand ;
• After Listening: Listen Again and Again ; 
• Familiarize Yourself with Sounds - Listen While Reading a Transcript ;
• Pay Attention to What you Know and Need to Know ;
• Slowing Down Online Videos ; Listening Strategy: Predict What You Will Hear ; and
• Connecting Sounds to Written Language .

While geared toward the language learner, the content of these videos is also a helpful refresher for teachers planning listening activity lessons.
