Made with mini whiteboard plenaries in mind. Have worked well for me; enjoy!
Primarily year 1 Physics paper 2 content in a workbook form with clear notes and diagrams, and space for worked examples. Over 50 pages in the student workbook - great value. Check out the other student workbooks for year 1 and paper 2 also on TES.
Visiting PhD student provided our dept with this! (hence the excellent footnotes). What is ‘predestination’? What Biblical support is there for the doctrine? What are the implications for moral responsibility? What did Augustine, Pelagius, Calvin, Arminus, Edwards and John Wesley have to say? This was the handout to his talk. Questions included at the end.
Drawn from a Guardian article, this resource summarises Archbishop Welby's thinking on corporate responsibility and guilt, based on his years as an oil executive. Fascinating proposals for corporate 'humiliation' and very quotable.
Two powerpoints here covering mind - body interaction and the conceivability argument for substance dualism. Similar in style to my other resources available in TES. Nothing too fancy, but I did try to stick really closely to the spec. ‘Handout’ refers to the Routledge handouts available here https://routledgetextbooks.com/textbooks/9781138690394/additional-resources.php
Three separate lessons included. Nagel, Dennetts, Churchlands - all the mentioned scholars in AQA. Nothing too fancy here, but I have spent considerable hours on these and tried to follow the AQA spec really closely. Hopefully they will be of use to someone else too!
This follows on from my other Funtionalism ppt available on TES. Nothing fancy, but covers the specification closely: inverted qualia, Chinese thought experiment, ‘knowledge’/Mary argument.
Two powerpoints here, one on issues with dualism (covering the issue of other minds) and one general on the strengths and weaknesses of substance dualism. The first is purely for AQA Philosophy, but the second I also found useful teaching A Level RS (Edexcel) for Life after Death (dualism/materialism).
A powerpoint outlining some strengths and weaknesses of eliminative materialism. I had used the Lacewing notes to teach eliminative materialism, then started this ppt with a recap quiz and followed with the strengths and weaknesses.
I designed these to help me assess my students mid - topic before I set them an essay. Intended to take about 40 mins each, the four tests (Utilitarianism, Situation Ethics, Natural Law 1 and Natural Law 2 (Finnis/Hoose) contain a mix of short and longer questions.
Four retrieval quizzes, three suitable for mini whiteboards and one on Word, on:
Verification
Falsification
Language Games
Based on the Edexcel specification and the Religious Language anthology (university symposium between Flew, Hare and Mitchell) with an additional quiz on early and late Wittgenstein thrown in.
Worked well in my classes - enjoy!
Primarily year 2 Physics paper 1 content in a workbook form with clear notes and diagrams, and space for worked examples. Solutions are given in the accompanying teacher booklet. Over 50 pages in the student workbook - great value. Check out the other student workbooks for year 1 and paper 2 also on TES.
Year 1 student workbook covering paper 1 content with course notes and worked examples. Full solutions provided in the accompanying teacher booklet. 51 pages long. Perfect for Easter revision!
A brief powerpoint and research activity focussed on the benefits and challenges that Roman occupation brought to the world of the first century. Activity is running a campaign to challenge the Judean People's Front! (or, should that be the People's Front of Judea?!)
Intended for Edexcel new spec Topic 1.2 of Paper 3 - New Testament. Exploring the social, economic and geographical context of the events of the Gospels. As yet untested on an actual class - feedback welcome!
Powerpoint introduction to the Goodness of God topic. Basis of God's goodness in his character and divine simplicity. Introduction to what 'good' means for God through the Euthyphro Dilemma, and examination of two difficult texts - Abraham's call to sacrifice Isaac, and the Amalekite genocide of 1 Samuel 15. Views of Professors William Lane Craig, William Darwall, Richard Dawkins and Dr Tim Keller summarised or linked to. Includes several Youtube clips and links to wider reading.
I have turned some of the work of Rev. Dr Thomas Williams' entry on Anselm in the SEP into a handout. Focusses on how Anselm develops his discussions of God's impassibility, timelessness and simplicity, from his several statements of the ontological argument in Proslogion 2 and 3. Actually not as complex as it sounds!

The new Edexcel specification asks for 'biblical examples of situationist teaching, such as illustrated in the ministry of Jesus' (page 21). This is my attempt at fleshing that out! Good for synoptic links between NT and Ethics papers.
