Citizenskills
Citizenskills, produced for the UK’s Basic Skills Agency, aims to improve English language skills through teaching citizenship. The CD-ROM, built to fit easily into tutor-led classes, encourages learners to become active citizens. Citizenskills helps them understand and engage with the local community and the country as a whole.
Aimed at students with basic English, the product explores six key areas of life in the UK:
- community
- government & law
- health
- housing
- learning
- work
BBC WIL blended information on these topics with interactive exercises, a built-in dictionary and a scene builder which allows users to create their own dialogues.
