Without a doubt, at BT we're totally passionate about communication - the life skill that's more important than any other. Possessing the ability to communicate effectively is a critical part of being a flourishing employee, student, parent or citizen. That is why we're fully committed to making certain that young people in this country have opportunities to acquire listening and speaking skills and get the best possible start in life.

Numerous studies have shown that having the ability to express yourself properly, and understand with equal clarity what other people are saying to you is a vital thing to be able to do. Being skilled at interpersonal communication is strongly associated with educational achievement, positive social behaviour, physical and mental well-being, and ultimately employability. The result is that this is a good place to carry out your investigation*.

But research also suggests that the need to support the development of communication skills is of more importance today than it has ever been before. A range of factors have been blamed; including long periods of time watching TV and playing videogames; the absence of communication within many of today's busy families; a 21st century media culture centred on the sound-bite; and the shortage of positive role models in society. The BT Better World Campaign's site is therefore an ideal place to further your search for information about the term better communication skills.

The BT Better World Campaign web site contains a wealth of material designed to help you get the most from communication. Children and young people will find games that reveal secrets about good communication in a way that's fun and entertaining. Videos and animations explain everything from how to ensure your friendships are rewarding to how to do well in an interview situation.

Teachers will find material to support the objectives of the national curriculum regarding speaking and listening. There's also information about the financial awards that BT offers to schools. Last but by no means least, parents are catered for, with the 'parent radio' section of the website devoted to advice for those faced with some of the trickier angles of parenting. In addition to those activities which can be enjoyed on the site itself, the site holds a catalogue of DVDs and literature which can be yours at a cost of no more than the price of post and packing.
