Without a doubt, at BT we're totally passionate about communication - the key enabling skill of life. Possessing the ability to communicate effectively is a vital contributor to being a great student, parent, employee and citizen. That's the reason we are resolved to make certain that the young people of Britain have the chance to develop as expert speakers and listeners, and have the stongest possible beginning in life.

A great deal of research has indicated that being able to express yourself well, and with equal clarity to understand what others are expressing is a vital thing to be able to do. A proficiency at interpersonal communication is strongly linked to educational attainment, acceptable social behaviour, physical and mental well-being, and the ability of an individual to get employment. This is without doubt a good place to further your exploration*.

Research, however, also shows that the need to support the development of communication skills is greater today than ever before. A range of causes have been alluded to; such as lengthy periods playing videogames and watching TV; the decline of conversation within the average busy family; the short-attention-span culture we live in today; and the lack of role models for people to look up to. BT's website campaigning for a better world is a good place to look further into the term communication competence skills.

As you're about to see, the BT Better World Campaign web site is home to a treasure-chest of material assembled so you'll discover how to get more from communication. The younger generation will find games that are designed to explain the principles of good communication in ways that are both entertaining and educational. Videos and animations explain everything from how to get on better with your friends to how to come across well in an interview.

As a teacher you're likely to be interested in material designed to support the part of the curriculum devoted to speaking and listening. There's also help for those interested in applying for the monetary awards that are available to schools from BT. Parents needn't feel left out either, with part of the site's contents ('parent radio') focused on advice about tackling some of the thornier elements of being a good parent. As well as online activities that are immediately accessible, the site provides access to a range of DVDs and literature which you can order for the cost of post and packaging alone.
