*Lesson follows new AQA guidance on AS and A Level Sociology 2022 *
Just a quick lesson recapping on globalisation and education.
Do now: recapping on education, MiC, families and any random topic of the AS course (following AQA specification)
Starter: odd one out. Students need to identify the concept which is the odd one out and justify it with a link between the remaining 3 concepts
Think pair share: Students try to recap on globalisation and make links to social policies.
Handout: Class reading through the handout. Aspects highlighted in bold and purple - key bits for students to focus on and use for their homework!
Planning: Students then plan how they would answer a 10 mark question on their MWB
AO’s: Reminder to students and discussion on how they can identify the AO’s in a piece of work
Example paragraph: Students are presented with an example paragraph and need to highlight the AO’s and annotate WWW and EBI which would help them to improve/write the second paragraph
Homework: Students are to create revision material based on the handout they’ve read over previously and answer a 20 mark exam question for homework.
For me the best way to revise sociology was condensing my notes, planning essays and learning sociologists.
I have uploaded my extremely condensed notes as well as a table pointing which sociologists are relevant to learn under a specific topic.
The day before our first paper, people freaked out that there was going to be a question based on Globalisation, so I have also included an essay on this.
Sociology and Careers PowerPoint Lesson and Activities. This lesson contains 20 slides of activities start start with looking at how careers can be linked to this subject area and then exploring an average persons income for 2020 and how far that salary would go in the real world when taking into account taxes, NI, Student loan. Mortgages, Rent and fixed costs and bills etc. Then exploring what disposable income is.
The lesson then moves on to considering employee rights and responsibilities (and those of Employers) creating a job profile and looking at what Labour Market Information is and how things Like Brexit and Covid-19 may impact future job prospects and the outlook of the labour market. Links are then provided to other places on the Internet where careers advice can be sought.
I have also included an A3 card sort activity about the skills and qualities looked for by employers in school leavers.
This lesson would work really well and be complemented by the set of 8 Careers posters we have developed for Sociology
I have also included a Progress Passport activity which can be used to help encourage students to plan for the years 2021-2022 and focus on their positives and strengths and link this to their career choices and personal goals and targets they would like to set and achieve. Eveything is editable so please adapt and differentiate if needed.
