A New Language Resource Puts Interactive Learning into People's Hands, Without the Need for Technology

Power Play will launch at this year's Language Show Live, which takes place at the Olympia Exhibition Centre, London, from 16-18th October. This is the largest language learning show in Europe, and visitors will be able to take part in Power Play demonstration games at this free event. Power Play is not only a game. It is an individual learning resource that can be used by students to practice, revise and learn on their own. Language learning really takes off once you start a conversation, and that's where this resource is totally unique. It includes various game play elements which require players to use the language they are learning in order to play the game. One of the best things about this method is the instant reward it gives to students, as well as it's suitability for people of all abilities, ages and learning styles.

Power Play is a revolutionary new tool for both teachers and language learners:

People can get a hands-on demonstration of how Power Play works at Language Show Live, or find out more online, at http://www.WorldClassPowerPlay.com

Throughout the month of October, people will be able to purchase Power Play at a massively reduced price through its Kickstarter campaign. This is a new product which is continually being expanded and developed to include new languages and ability levels. Its makers are seeking support for the next round of development and are offering fantastic special offers to schools, teachers, students and gamers in return for their early support.

Power Play currently has language versions for learners of English, French, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese. Its structured approach to learning has several levels of ability from beginner to high intermediate. Following a successful start-up campaign the makers will be developing versions for higher ability levels, with 6 levels of ability currently planned. They also hope to add new languages to the range, including Japanese, Arabic, Portuguese, German and Italian.

People are invited to visit their website to find out more, and to make purchases via their Kickstarter page. Throughout the month of October people can take advantage of up to 50% off the usual retail price.

NOTE TO EDITORS

Power Play is designed and produced by World Class Learners. This development team makes use of its experience in teaching, educational training, interactive design and developmental psychology to develop more effective methods for teaching and learning. Its lead designer has a wide ranging experience in language education and a scientific understanding of the learning process. He has provided training to language teachers and developed new learning curriculum for international schools in China and Japan. He has also lectured in developmental psychology at university in the UK. World Class Learners know that there is a need for new interactive learning methods, but also recognises that digital methods alone cannot meet the changing needs of educators and students. We believe in realistic interaction and in the importance of motivation and playful engagement in the learning process. People learn more when it makes sense and they enjoy it. It's as simple as that.
