      abstract = {This study investigated the effect of Context-Based Learning Strategy (CBLS) on the academic performance of Junior Secondary School students in listening comprehension in Ekiti State, Nigeria. Using a quasi-experimental design, two groups of JSS2 students were selected: one experimental group taught using CBLS, and one control group taught with conventional strategies. Data were collected using a Listening Comprehension Achievement Test (LCAT) and analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and t-tests. The results revealed a statistically significant improvement in the performance of students exposed to CBLS (t = 5.84, p< 0.05). The study concluded that CBLS is an effective method for enhancing students' listening comprehension and recommended its integration into English language instruction at the junior secondary school level.},
