This research aimed at identifying the listening skills and revealing the impact of designing digital learning objects based on blending between the interaction types and Web Podcasting on the development of English language skills among secondary school students. To achieve this objective the researcher divided the study sample which consisted of (60) students randomly and equally into two experimental groups: The first experimental group which consisted of (30) students learned by digital learning objects based on blending between the interaction types ,the second experimental group which consisted of (30) students learned by digital learning objects based on blending between the interaction types and Podcasting to develop cognitive and performance aspects among secondary school students because they have deficiencies and weaknesses in these skills. The researcher used a range of tools such as the achievement test to measure the cognitive achievement of these skills , observation sheet to measure the performance of these skills. The results showed the presence of statistically significant differences between the two groups in favor of the second group in cognitive achievement and performance attributable to the teaching mode which included giving appropriate feedback and it took into account individual differences among the students .and in favor of using digital learning objects based on blending between the interaction types and Podcasting. Besides, the subjects of the second experimental group reached the mastery level in both the cognitive domain and performance. (Published abstract)
