Theory of Knowledge: The Historical Social and Cultural Influence on Art

(0)
This is a fully scaffolded lesson considering the Historical, Social and Cultural influence on our understanding of Art. There are ten tasks all together, with all resources provided. The lesson starts by considering the role of stereotypes in our understanding of different forms of Art, before considering events in the US and the UK surrounding the removal of statues. Then there’s an analysis of cancel culture, and some activities considering why certain musicians haven’t been cancelled. All told, there are ten tasks for students to complete. I would estimate that there is 3-4 hours of material here, and certainly very useful as a foundation when looking at some of the Exhibition prompts. This lesson is good to go as soon as your download it, but you may want to change the material on Task 2 as it focuses on Irish stereotypes. All the links to the videos are in the notes section (and are included in the file), and the lesson is easily adaptable and editable. The Word Doc for students to work on a PPT to guide the lesson and provoke discussion.

Theory of Knowledge: History and TOK

(0)
This differs from my other History and TOK lesson in that this is more TOK then History, meaning that I wrote it for my TOK class rather than my History class. The tasks include an analysis of Ants v Termites and whether it should be considered history, some reflection tasks to consider a students own history, historigraphy, and a consideration of what is History. Nonetheless, it contains twelve scaffolded and structured tasks for students to complete. I would say there is probably about 4 hours work here all together. This lesson is easily editable and adaptable, but is also ready to go as soon as it is downloaded. It is suitable for in class, online or blended learning.
