dc.description.abstractThe study is a survey work on some classroom practices in the teaching of Listening Comprehension in Selected Senior Secondary Schools in Kogi by L.G.A. It set out to examine the techniques, activities and materials used for teaching the skill and also to identify problems encountered during Listening Comprehension Lessons. The subjects of the study were students and teachers of English in the Senior Secondary Schools. The two main instruments of the study were questionnaire and classroom observation. In the questionnaire, the opinions of teachers and students were sought concerning the teaching of Listening Comprehension. Lessons were observed to examine the techniques, activities and materials used for teaching the skill. The analyses were done using frequencies and percentages. The results have shown that teachers teach the skill but mainly for examination purposes. The findings also revealed that the most common technique used is "reading aloud" and the most used teaching material is the "teacher's natural voice", while "listening to passages from textbooks" is the most used activity. Among the main recommendations are: Teacher Education Programmes should incorporate the teaching of Listening Comprehension into their English Language Programmes. Also teachers should teach not just for examination purposes alone, but they should be responsive to the student's needs and the realities of the second language situation in Nigeria.en_US
