The PowerPoint presentation covers the following areas: A definition of key terms on voting behaviour (not comprehensive, however a good start for the unit) A comprehensive definition of what is meant by ‘class’ An evaluation of the extent to which class affects voting behaviour A short consideration of the context that has affected the impact of class on voting behaviour more recently Alongside the presentation, there is a PDF of an analysis of the BBC Great British Class Survey from 2013, to add complexity to modern considerations of class. There is also a table that details the AB, C1, C2 and DE breakdown of class as well as a mock-up source question through which students are directed (in the lesson) to identify the arguments for and against the importance of social class in voting behaviour.

The sixth lesson in a unit of work looking at the causes of WWI. This lesson provides a detailed analysis of the various qualities of the different weapons, vehicles and national armies. This is initially engaged with through a card game (rules - students select an attribute without first stating their score. They then compare attributes of the different cards, with the winner taking the other players card(s) and then going first on the next round. Continue until there is a winner), with the justification for some of these scores given in the notes of the relevant slide. The rest of the lesson then provides an overview of how this militarism changes over time, before finally concluding in a writing task. Scaffolding is provided for analysing causality.

This now provides students with: The story of the Peasants’ Revolt A detailed case study looking into the revolt with numerous sources - this case study allows students to match against both interpretations An investigation grid to scaffold analysis for the students

The Moroccan Crises are subsequently compared to the Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, so that students are comparing specific events as causes. The PowerPoint is supported by a narrative of both crises, as well as a table for consolidating knowledge.
