What is BT is passionate about? Communication - a skill that's probably the most vital of all. Being an effective communicator lies at the very centre of being a winning employee, parent, citizen and student. And it's because of this that we've resolved to make sure that young people in the UK have opportunities to acquire listening and speaking skills and have the stongest possible beginning in life.

A substantial number of research projects have shown that being able to express yourself clearly, and understand with equal clarity what others say to you is a key life skill. A proficiency at interpersonal communication is definitely linked with positive social behaviour, mental and physical well-being, educational achievement, and at the end of the day, job prospects. The result is that this is a good place to further your exploration*.

However, research also indicates that the requirement to bolster the acquisition of communication skills is greater these days than it has ever been before. Several possible reasons have been suggested; including long periods of time watching TV and playing videogames; the absence of proper conversation within busy modern families; the short-attention-span culture we live in today; and the absence of positive role models. The BT Better World Campaign's site is therefore an ideal place to continue your investigation into the term active listening teacher resource.

As you're about to see, the BT Better World Campaign web site is home to a treasure-chest of material brought together to help you get the most out of every aspect of interpersonal communication. Children and young people will find games which teach about better communication in a way which is fun and thought-provoking. Videos and animations explain everything from how you and your friends can get on better to how to succeed at an interview.

Teachers will find material to support the speaking and listening element of the national curriculum. You will also find a description of the financial awards which BT offers to schools.
