This resource is the start of a 60 minute escape room (still in development) but is ideal as a starter, 15-20 minutes (approximately - dependent on size of group). The basis is that there are a number of documents that require a group to share out and read to answer the crossword puzzle questions - some are easy, some are more challenging, but all the answers are in the printable materials. This encourages group interaction and discussion and is an ideal ice breaker. This pack contains printables that constitute a complete escape room experience which is an ideal ice-breaker and fosters positive team building interaction while also being somewhat educational and fun. Case files included are blank and completed (fictional) and can be used as inspiration to write your own. The photographs on the case files are not my property these are actual photographs of patients from Bedlam available online. A great resource for your further reading is in the links below. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7296751/Faces-patients-notorious-Bedlam-Asylum.html https://museumofthemind.org.uk/ A qr code for the Bethlem official museum is on the newspaper printable, a nice touch for anyone wanting to learn more. The newspaper file is A4 but needs printing as A3 for best results. The asylum photo files is an optional extra to add decor to your room - i printed these out and laminated for future use and used these on the walls. This pack contains the crossword puzzle answer sheet - i wrote the answer in invisible ink in the admin only box on the quiz sheet and used a torch to reveal the answer - this was fun but made having someone else run the quiz for you easier if you were using this on a larger group.

This lesson is for the key question for learning theories, comprising of a brief powerpoint that highlights some of the materials to use for AO1 and AO2. Includes 2 sets of flashcard files - a mini version and a larger version - i have 7 printed, laminated and attached with a ring which students use in class, but they can have a set of their own which would be useful for revision and is a good introduction on how to make flashcards work. This essay culminates in writing the essay. Lesson includes a link to a quizlet of the flashcards with an option to test - as this is coming up on the 2022 exams this could prove useful.

This powerpoint provides a one hour lesson for AS revision, using the revision clock and providing an overview of required knowledge for each topic - in this sense it becomes a handy revision tool for students to navigate to sections from the links in the menu to areas they need to focus on. Also useful for A2 learners revising the topic for final exams. This is a large powerpoint as it encompasses all materials for this module.

This is an activity to be used to help students understand the problems faced with diagnosis. It consists of a 3 page document. Page 1 to be printed on one sheet and page 2 and 3 to be printed double sided. The students use a symptom sheet for 3 disorders that have similar symptoms and use this to populate a tick box sheet - they can tick, or shade the boxes for the disorders that have the same symptoms which then enables them to see the issues with co-morbidity and how a disorder can easily be diagnosed. A great tool to help students understand what co-morbidity is. And can be used to help them distinguish the symptoms of schizophrenia - can be used with scenarios which have been added to this download - or at least some examples of scenarios. You could develop your own if you wanted, these were just a few I came up with.

This resource is for AQA Psychology specification. This resource is best printed in A3. They are double sided resource sheets which provide essay points and all relevant information for all issues and debates And include a 16-mark essay plan to help students prepare for exams. These work well in conjunction with the cat/dog books but also can be used as standalones. They include examples for year 12 and year 13 and include a diagram for each debate which shows where the approaches sit on each debate which is a useful tool.

This encompasses 2-3 lessons with opportunity for some of this to be done as homework, it includes review of methodology (quant vs qual) and what approaches are idiographic and nomothetic including examples. There are extensive writing opportunities which culminate at the end as the elements of a 16 mark essay (AQA). The handout referred to are actually the pages on the topic in the cat/dog books, which i cannot share here as i do not own them. The complete process will walk learners through both approaches, as well as how to evaluate them, it includes an example essay plan, room for them to create their own as well as 2 example 8 mark essays that can be fused together with 2 additional paragraphs to make a 16 mark essay - these 2 essays allow for close consideration and development of understanding of each approach. There are also some examples and match up exercises to test knowledge - and the links to an online website (which i do not own or did not create) is attached which is useful to use for revision. I have also attached at the end some video recommendations for students or teachers to use as part of learning or as consolidation of learning. NOTE THE FONT I USED IN THIS POWERPOINT AND WORKBOOK IS THE HAND, THIS MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE ON ALL VERSIONS OF POWERPOINT AND WORD SO YOU MAY NEED TO RESIZE THINGS IF YOU ARE USING A DIFFERENT FONT. NOTE THE GAPS IN THE WORKBOOK THAT REFER TO A HANDOUT ARE IN REFERENCE TO USING TEXTBOOKS - THE ONE USED PRIMARILY FOR THIS IS THE CAT DOG BOOK DOUBLE SPREADS.

This resource is a lesson to consolidate learning on validity and reliability with some hands on activities to get students actively thinking and putting in to practice valid and reliable measuring tools and considering their usefulness. This resource includes a powerpoint, handout with space for students to write notes on the activities and the activity workbook student and teacher version. All you need is scissors and rulers, possibly glue and some spare plain paper. Students seem to really enjoy and get engaged in this lesson and it really seems to help them work out the difference between the two concepts. There are two of the student workbook files, one labelled student file, another that is the teacher version, the only difference is that the photos for Lombroso for validity analysis have an additional page with the answers on should you not know who the people in the photographs are - . the only one not a criminal is 14, who is an actor from the Hills have eyes, the others are all criminals but some may not fit Lombrosos atavistic form theory which is where the discussion about validity gets really interesting.

This pack includes an A3 printable resource - which are great laminated! Can be used with dry erase pens or the tiles included . The image is a final resource, the tiles can be used as they are in the file, added to or changed as you see fit. The A4 worksheet is great for individual work - to be filled in with either Maslow’s hierarchy for later revision purposes in students notes/files, or used as a task for the student to think about what their own hierarchy would be. This promotes thought about the concept of Humanism. (A powerpoint lesson to accompany this will be up in the next few days and available separately or as part of a pack). This task allows students to think about Maslow’s ideas of what the hierarchy looks like and what their own would look like, and how the impact of simple things such as food and shelter do have an impact on our goals and what we can achieve. When used alongside a scenario as in the powerpoint this can be a powerful tool to promote discussion and deeper thought about the topic of humanism. This download also includes a Humanism handout giving an overview of the approach with evaluation points. The printable section has the tiles which you can add to or remove from, and includes some blank squares which are great to use if students want to add their own ideas in there to. Which can be added as an extension task. You can also add the tiles with the layer names on as an extension and discuss whether these might move if they re-arranged the tiles for themselves. Its a nice task, to look at how Maslow suggests it should look and then getting students to re-arrange it for what they think it might look like for them. *I do not own the copyright to the image of Maslow, this was sourced via creative commons on a search engine.
