Social and Community Studies - Viewing Lesson: RBT episode with drug conviction

A worksheet for a viewing lesson designed to pique student interest in road laws at the beginning of a new unit. This episode included a few low range drink driving offences and one drug related offence.

This resource includes the handout for students to complete and a modeled response (teacher answers).

The handout includes a retrieval chart for students to record information including: the result of the first breathalyzer test, the quantity and type of alcohol consumed, second reading, conviction etc. It also includes some short response questions and an extended response question which requires students to write a paragraph citing relevant QLD traffic laws which would be applied if this incident had occurred in QLD instead of NSW.

The worksheet includes screenshots from relevant legislation which students must draw on in their response.

The episode is available on Click View and a link is included at the top of the handout.

Pedagogical Tip: I utilise the broadcast strategy approach (Barry & King, 1998) previewing the questions prior to playing the episode so that students know what to listen out for.

Part of a set of resources created for a senior Social & Community studies class in Australia (QCAA syllabus). The other resources are also available in my store - Aussie_Resources.
