*Session does not include information of either of Bandura’s research studies but includes information on key terminologys/concepts based on his research and looks at application skills preparing students for exam questions. Revision session based on Social learning theory, specifically the key terminologies/concepts based on Bandura’s research. Starter actvity is a match up activity. Students are provided with key terms from each of the approaches required in the specification for year 12. Social learning theory, cognitive approach, biological approach, behaviourist approach and the origins of psychology. Students sort the terms out and match them with the correct approach which they are relevant to. More able students should attempt to identify any key terms that are not provided for each approach (later shown on powerpoint in green) and attempt to explain as many as they can from each approach. ( I provided match up activity in envelope). Next activity students write as much information: key terms and explanations as they can about Social learning theory. They are not to write anything about Bandura’s procedures, findings or evaluations. This is a timed activity of two minutes. They are then to pass to another student who has a time limit of a minute. The next student adds any additional information, corrects any inaccuracies and elaborates on any information/key terms provided. This is repeated another two times, with another two students with a reduced amount of time for each student. Feedback to the class to discuss knowledge of the approach. Powerpoint shows feedback from the sample materials examiners reports for 2017 and 2016. This links in with the next exam question task which is focused on application and knowledge of key terminology. Task sheet handed to students which includes task instructions, scenario and exam question worth 6 marks. TASK INSTRUCTIONS Write brief definitions in each of the boxes containing the key terms. Read the scenario carefully. Underline parts of the scenario you think demonstrate the key terms. Use as many of the key terms in your answer. Exam question: Explain how Mick’s recent weight gain can be explained by Social learning theory. (6 marks) I allow students time for each instruction and then allow time to answer the question. Student friendly mark scheme is then provided which includes table with description of a level and marks that can be awarded and also possible content and possible application points. These are quite detailed to allow students to peer assess and award a mark to their answers but also so students can use to answer it again to gain full marks. Session is concluded with five true/ false questions with students using whiteboards/scrap paper to share their answers.

(my students draw a red or green brain to indicate either one) Students then shown table on the powerpoint with an example completed for the primary need of clothing and how the parental role/rewsponsibility meets this need. Students then need to complete their own table for each primary and then additional need, stating how they are met by the roles and responisibilities of parenthood. Discussion activity on ‘why aren’t all needs primary’ and then a ranking activity for each of the primary needs. Students should justify their choices of ranking comparing and evaluating them. Case study sceanrio provided and students provided the following question to answer: How do you think this information impacts on the role and responsibilities of Sylvester’s parents with regard to providing for her primary care needs?

Types of contraception are written in different styles on slide eight and student are given 60 seconds to study them. After the 60 seconds students are given the same amount of time to recall as many as they can that were displayed. More able students should attempt to explain how some of the methods work. Information is then provided, first on barrier methods and then on hormonal methods of contraceptives. Students are then shown a table which lists the methods of contraceptives and students are to complete their own stating the pro’s and con’s for each method. ( I also print out some handouts on each method from the internet- NHS site is quite good for them) More able and less able tables provided. Next activity is to apply their knowledge by creating an informational poster: Instructions: Decide what factors the poster will incorporate Decide what information will be given about each factor Design the poster Use words like – where, when, how, who etc Pleanry is to discuss and show the rest of the table/nearby students one anothers posters.
