Global Politics: Are Political Forums a Tool for the Elite?

(0)
This is an inquiry-based, structured and fully scaffolded series of lessons on the role of political forums and whether they are simply a tool of the elite, looking at the G7, G20, the WEF and BRICS. There is no excessive heavy reading for the students; everything is broken down is easily accessible chunks. The lesson starts by considering different types of cooperation in Global Politics before assessing the achievements and weaknesses of the G7. There are two tasks on the WEF, one on the forum as a whole and an analysis of the 2023 Davos meeting. There is then a look at BRICS and a consideration as to whether it challenges or reinforces the global elite. Several TOK Links are included. The lesson concludes by assessing political forums as a whole. There are nine tasks which are all differentiated, with all resources provided, including reading and videos. There are plenty of visual aids for EAL students. It is very discussion-based, with some research opportunities, so it should take at least four hour-long lessons due to the detail required of some of the tasks. This lesson is good to go as soon as your download it, and the lesson is easily adaptable and editable as there is no branding or fancy gimmicks on the slides. Links to the videos are in the notes on the slides and are also included in the ZIP file. Relevant articles are also provided in an easily accessible format. It will transfer easily to Teams, Google or any other online format but also works as a paper lesson. The Word Doc for students to work on a PPT to guide the lesson and provoke discussion.

IBDP History: Collapse of Communism in Eastern Europe

(0)
This is a very simple lesson which looks at the collapse of Communism across Eastern Europe. Students are encouraged to think thematically and looks for similarities and differences across the different regimes. Tasks are fully structured and scaffolded with conceptual questions added in. This is designed as the last lesson to be taught in the Paper 2 Cold War Unit so students should be expected to introduce background knowledge into this (e.g. Solidarity in Poland, Reforms in the Soviet Union). There are five tasks to complete, along with an essay where I have included a marking proforma and a planning sheet. This lesson is good to go right upon downloading, but is easily adapted and edited. Links to the videos are in the notes section of the PPT but here I’ve been able to include them in the Zip File.

Auteur Theory

Auteur Theory

(0)
I created this for Auteur theory. Works well with some of the other stuff on here, but this looks at applying the theory across different types of media. I have not used resources from a textbook to make this. Requires independent study.
Sociology and Social Policy

Sociology and Social Policy

(1)
This is suitable for AQA A2 Sociology and CIE AS Sociology. The powerpoint is adapted from something I found and updated to include some mention of Trump and Theresa May and generally make it more accessible to A-Level students. Some knowledge from the teaching perspective about various things is assumed. This is predominantly designed to work in a UK school but should be accessible around the world.
