The Humanities Workshop

Average Rating4.25
(based on 9 reviews)

As I started my teaching career in a 'special measures' school in Blackpool, more than anything, I relied on my self-made and carefully crafted resources to engage, entertain and teach those wonderful kids how to learn and achieve. Today, after qualifying as an 'outstanding' teacher, teaching full-time for four years and moving to Germany, I try my very best to replicate that mentality every single day. All resources are crafted to suit areas of either GCSE, A Level or the IB. Enjoy!

Population Case Study Research Project

(0)
A research project designed to enable students to develop their own individualised case study on a specific population of their choice. Students will follow a set criteria designed and inspired by subject-specific methodology and Bloom’s Taxonomy. The research project encourages students to become familiar with population indicators, trends and patterns over time, before analysing population issues and creating viable solutions. I use this for my S7 European Baccalaureate course (16-18 years old) but it can easily be implemented in a high-level GCSE class, A-Level or IB course. It usually takes between 10-15 hours. Included is an introduction, overview, success criteria and feedback sheet.
