Reviews and testimonials from satisfied teachers and students who
are using Campaign.
'Campaign
is making a major impact on the British Council’s Peacekeeping
English programme, which enables international peacekeepers to communicate
more effectively with each other in troublespots across the globe.
By helping them to keep the peace Campaign is helping to save lives
and is a worthy ELTON winner.'
John Whitehead, Head of English Language
Teaching at the British Council
'This is a genuine attempt to break new ground and Macmillan should
be applauded for this. The package is well put together and has
website support. I can see this having great potential as it has
been piloted extensively... a really exciting product!
Judges comments, the British Council Innovations
Awards 2005
'Hugely impressed by this entry, particularly the exemplary Teacher's
Book, which is an excellent guide to the specifics of the military,
and elements of professional behaviour (good teaching habits) which
should be on all teacher training courses. Very well designed Student's
Books that welcomes the learner in, and allows the learner space
to learn.'
Judges comments, the British Council Innovations

' Very soundly researched, tested methodology, meets needs of ever
increasing market.’
Comment from an ESU judge
‘An excellent example of ESP / functional language teaching
at its best, and for a very important contribution to peacekeeping.’
Comment from an ESU judge
‘An unusual and very specific entry but a gem of its genre
(ESP).’
Comment from an ESU judge
‘Campaign is an ideal course
for all military personnel who need to learn English for international
cooperation and will be a valuable resource for the British Council’s
Peacekeeping English Project in Central and Eastern Europe. Its
unique advantage is that it uses a communicative approach in a military
context.’
Paul Woods, Peacekeeping English Project
Manager for the British Council
‘On viewing Book 1, I would like to say how marvellous and
much needed this military coursebook is and I look forward to seeing
books 2 and 3.’
Catherine Furneaux, English Language Training
Centre at the Britannia Royal Naval College in Dartmouth
’As part of a properly planned language training programme
for PSO personnel, Campaign will be
an asset’
Eddie Richards, ELT consultant (extract taken
from a review in the PEP newsletter, issue 15)
'I am more than pleased that I have finally found suitable material
for teaching English in the course of defence studies. So far such
materials have been rather scarce therefore I welcome any material
I can get. The Campaign News Digest
is the best for at least three reasons: the texts are short, up
to date and professional, there is a student worksheet and teacher's
notes and (most importantly) the material is photocopiable.'
Miriam Tavcar, Solvenia
