It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide: when clicked a random history debate is presented to the group.

-Form time activities
-History/Philosophy/Citizenship/Politics cover lessons
-Debating societies
-History P4C (Philosophy for kids) cross-curricular resource

Discussions follow one of four formats, each asking students to move from one side of the room or the other to make their position clear: teachers should then use questioning to foster a debate between students, encouraging them to present reasons for their choice and defend their position.

The formats are:
-“Agree or disagree?”
-“Which time-portal do you take?” (with animated portal graphics, great for engagement)
-“Who do you save from the time travelling assassin?” (also very engaging and graphically impressive!)
-“Which statement is more true?”

There are roughly 50 of each slide.
