It is a complete unit of work inclusive of powerpoints and student booklets to accompany each powerpoint - this greatly encourages student-led learning. It also includes information sheets and an example essay. The unit covers at least 20 hours of teaching (though I usually take a little longer as I teach this from September through to February!). The resource covers six main normative theories, including explanations and evaluation of each one. It includes the points on the specification of moral principles, virtue / character based theories and deontological versus teleological theories, explored through the following theories: Aquinas’ Natural Law Divine Command Theory Utilitarianism Virtue Ethics Kantian Ethics Social Contract Theory If you like this resource, please leave a review.

This resource helps students to consider the concept of moral dilemmas. There are tasks in which students are asked to consider how they would approach various dilemmas, Phillipa Foot’s ‘Trolley Dilemma’ is discussed in relation to absolutist vs situationist approaches and ideas around judging morality based on consequences or intentions are discussed. There is also a basic consideration of how religious groups may approach these ideas. Overall, the (fully editable) PowerPoint is 32 slides in length and likely to take 2-3 lessons to complete. It was originally created to cover two 1-hour lessons, but always seems to take longer if you let the debates run! A NOTE ABOUT MY POWERPOINTS: All slides have information for delivery provided in the ‘Notes’ section. Gold boxes contain information that can be read to the class; it’s also a good opportunity to select a student to read for literacy. Blue ‘TASK’ boxes are always tasks to be completed (these may link to an extra resource that has been provided, such as a worksheet). There will also be a ‘sound level icon’ suggested for these (there is also a slide at the end full of sound levels icons that you can use to edit). Some tasks also have key careers/employability skills indicated. Orange ‘CONSIDER’ boxes are questions that can be discussed as a class or in groups. Green ‘EXTENSION’ boxes are extra work/challenge for those who complete the main blue box tasks or are otherwise ready for something more difficult. Red boxes generally have some information hidden behind them and will reveal as you click through the PowerPoint.
