At BT we're passionate about communication - surely life's most vital skill. Possessing the ability to communicate effectively lies at the heart of being a flourishing employee, student, parent or citizen. That's the reason we are resolved to make absolutely sure that the UK's young people get opportunities to become expert speakers and listeners, and have the stongest possible beginning in life.

A great deal of research has indicated that having the ability to express yourself properly, and comprehend equally clearly what the people surrounding you are saying is a crucially important thing to be able to do. Having good interpersonal communication skills is unquestionably connected to educational attainment, acceptable social behaviour, physical and mental well-being, and an individual's job prospects. This is without doubt a good place to conduct your research*.

But research equally suggests that the need to encourage the learning of communication skills is greater these days than it has ever been before. Several possible reasons have been suggested; including too much time in front of the TV and games machine; the absence of proper conversation within busy modern families; the sound-bite culture of 21st century media; and the lack of role models for people to look up to. The BT Better World Campaign's site is therefore an ideal place to continue your study of the term active listening training activity.

BT's Better World Campaign web site is a treasure-chest of material put together so you'll be able to get the most from communication. Young people and children will discover games that are designed to explain the principles of good communication in ways that are both entertaining and educational. Animations and videos are designed to explain everything from how you can get the most from your friendships to how to perform effectively in an interview situation.

Teachers will discover material designed to support the speaking and listening part of the curriculum. There are also details of how to apply for the financial awards which BT offers to schools. Parents needn't feel left out either, with the 'parent radio' section of the website devoted to tips and hints about handling some of the more challenging angles of parenting. As well as online activities that are immediately accessible, the site holds a catalogue of DVDs and literature that you can request for no more than the price of the packing and post.
