Scaffolded activities
Every unit in Game Changer takes the student on a carefully staged journey. Students are gradually introduced to the topic and target language through a variety of scaffolded activities that build their confidence as they progress. Language is presented in context via a rich variety of real-world topics and each unit culminates in a creative writing or speaking task.
Global content focused on cultural, real-world topics
Game Changer units are structured in a way that always contemplate texts on broad cultural, cross-curricular themes and linguistic content, presented in real contexts. Students are exposed to people and places from all over the world, and ask questions that encourage them to think about the differences between their culture and other cultures, as well as explore international values, preparing them even more for their future as global citizens.

Creating confident, future-ready learnersGame Changer helps teachers develop learners’ global awareness and encourage a learning mindset.
Motivated and engaged students
Grammar and vocabulary are presented in a clear and contextualized way through dynamic reading and listening exercises in a wide variety of textual genres. Combining this with a fresh and fun approach to relevant and authentic topics, students see the purpose of their learning and feel motivated to explore and use the language.
Students prepared for life in a diverse and multicultural environment
Game Changer explores a variety of global themes in the double-page Around the World section, present in all units. This helps students broaden their understanding of other people, places and cultures, preparing them for life in a diverse and multicultural environment.
Students with critical thinking skills
We often “read” images before we read words. This happens every day with what we see on television, advertisements, internet memes, emoji or other media. By encouraging different responses to visual stimuli, we can help students critically analyze and interpret what they see and develop a deeper understanding of topics. The “Think!” questions at unit openings and throughout each unit encourage students to think beyond the photo or topic and articulate their opinions, developing their critical thinking skills.
