Sharia Law
An introductory lesson on Sharia Law aimed at A-Level or Gifted and Talented learners.
The lesson provides a basic overview of what is meant by Sharia Law and students undertake an activity about Aurangzeb.
There is a group presentation activity where students will be objectively looking at the portrayal of Sharia Law in the media/news and how it is represented. Students will also compare and contrast Sharia Law/views with Western views and ideals.
Banning of religious symbols
This lesson is designed to enable students to explore some of the arguments surrounding countries banning religious symbols. Originally it was delivered as a part of a tutorial but will also be applicable to a range of lessons e.g. PSHE, critical thinking and religious studies.
The slides are not extensive and the idea behind this lesson was to encourage discussion and students using the internet to explore activities in more detail in order to nurture independent learning.
