Boethius article, information and learning tasks for A2 philosophy and religion, the nature of God

(0)
Having taught Boethius and the nature of God for many years, I found pupils (and colleagues!) consistently struggling to understand Boethius on the nature of free will and divine omniscience so I wrote a 3000 word article outlining his views in a concise and clear manner. The article includes discussion questions, further reading, key terms and quotations. Also included in this document are several pages of interactive resources with comprehension questions, prep/homework tasks and engagement with Boethius' writing. This document is a comprehensive resource of all you will need for the Boethius component of the OCR A2 topic on the nature of God
