Moral Philosophy, A Level. Helpful to have the last ten minutes of the film, Gone Baby Gone.

Lesson introducing the classic logical fallacies within the broader context of teaching students how to argue effectively.

Y7-above. Exploring what a cult is - key features - and thinking about how cults and religions vary and what might make the two categories distinct. Good group activity where descriptions of movements are given but the name of the movement has been omitted. Students have to decide, based on the description alone, whether they think it is a cult or a religion and then go on to try and match the name with the movement.

This is a controversial lesson and should make for some great discussion. It begins with a mini IQ test, followed by a discussion about how to define intelligence. Finally, an argument based on the science of embryonic screening is presented (screening for and discarding embryos with a low IQ prediction) and a very challenging and controversial conclusion is drawn (which I in no way endorse!) which students are asked to contend with, intellectually.

Y7-Y8 includes a cool activity based on the game show, Pointless.
