This is the second part of my entire SOW on the 'new' AQA module 'Power and the People'.
I'm uploading the SOW and all the lessons and resources I have to go with it. I created this myself and will happily admit that it's far from perfect. Below I'll list the flaws as I see them so you're aware. However, I'm uploading this as I had such trouble finding any resources at all for this module that I thought I might as well put up what I have as a starting point for people. Please feel free to use, edit, pass on etc. as you see fit but be aware of the issues:
- I wrote this in blocks and hence some of the activities are very uninspiring and repetetive at times.
- There's an over-reliance on the AQA textbook. Though it has good information my students have found it very hard to understand at times. Later on in the scheme I've resorted to typing up and simplifying sections more than just giving them the book.
- More links to prior knowledge are needed.
- The exam board recommend 30 hours for this module. I don't think it's do-able in that time frame (and, apparently, neither do they if you look at their sample and it's lack of content on the topics they covered) and thus it overruns that recommendation.
- Lack of peer/group work.
- The colours of each powerpoint are exactly the same. I did this because I found they worked and were clear for all my students but you may find it annoying.
- Staying neutral on some topics is tough but required!
- I haven't yet taught topics 3 and 4 and thus the lessons there are untested. They might have more problems than the others as a result.
So, in short, something to start from. Use whatever you like!
