International Students Connect |
Just Connect and International Students ConnectBoth
96-page magazine-style materials for all overseas students
in the UK. Ideally they can be handed to students on arrival
and can be taken away by them and kept as a record of their
stay in the UK. They introduce readers to important issues
in a light-hearted way. Above all, they encourage students
to make the most of their stay in the country while exploring
the rich terrain of self- and cultural awareness. The magazines
are supported by substantial free Resource
Materials. These provide EFL/ESOL classroom materials
on topics such as culture shock, British identities, British
families, making friends, educational culture, food, leisure,
the law, governance and much more. While informing students
of British customs and practices, they teach through the cultural
capital of all the students present in any given class. "I
have become a big fan of your materials." UK
Price: £6.50

Just
Connect and International Students Connect will
not just entertain and inform international students but will
raise many a smile among teachers. What better way to introduce
international students to British culture than through the
all-pervasive British sense of humour? But there is also a
deeply serious intent at work. The magazines and the Support
Materials are not content merely to allude to issues like
first impressions, culture shock and complex British identities,
but provide materials that students can work through to reach
their own understanding of these matters in their own terms. |
them they are more than a record of their stay in Britain. They record their own explorations in another culture and its language. The Support Materials are designed to be used in language and cultural learning classrooms. Students and teachers can choose topics in the magazines and do more work on them with the Support Materials. Written by Robert Teed and copiously illustrated by Felix Bennett (the team that creates the 'Lexiconfusion' and 'Yooni' cartoon strips for The Times'), the magazines have been designed so that students can 'brand' them for the institutions they attend. |
