Conflict & Tension in the Gulf and Afghanistan, 1990 - 2009 [GCSE History: Video Learning Workbook ]
godwin86godwin86

Conflict & Tension in the Gulf and Afghanistan, 1990 - 2009 [GCSE History: Video Learning Workbook ]

(0)
This printable workbook is suitable for homework, classwork or distance learning: it will help your GCSE History students to get more from watching documentaries and videos. This colourful printable booklet includes ten learning sessions spread over twenty pages. You could also just print a couple of pages from this workbook to create a worksheet for an instant video-learning lesson: ideal for cover lessons! This teaching resource is designed for GCSE History and deals with topics relating the ‘Conflict & Tension in the Gulf and Afghanistan, 1990 - 2009’ section of the AQA exam specification. The workbook is suitable for other exam specifications but I used the AQA specification’s topic titles so you may wish to re-word the title slightly. The workbook includes links to ten different documentaries or lengthily videos and straight-forward note-taking and comprehension activities so as to structure and foster engagement with the documentary whilst enhancing student learning. The twenty-page workbook was designed with homework in mind and contains ten different homework sessions. I would suggest using the booklets as a simple way to take care of ‘every other homework’ and use it to supplement your other approaches to homework: just print the booklets out and give them to your students. You can also use the booklets just as well in a classroom setting and they are incredibly easy to use such that even a non-specialist cover-teacher could make use of them. They’re also an ideal way to bolster your distance learning provisions in times of student absence. Over time some of the links in this workbook may expire, I’ll try to update them from time to time but the workbook is easy to edit - so make sure you check that the links still work before printing and update any broken/defunct links that might crop-up! I’ve done my best to include links to the best videos available for this topic: teachers should ensure that the video links included are suitable for their specific classes.

The Religious Studies Debate Generator (KS5, AS, A2, RS, RE, Religious Education)
godwin86godwin86

The Religious Studies Debate Generator (KS5, AS, A2, RS, RE, Religious Education)

(0)
This download contains an editable 50+ slide PowerPoint featuring debates for AS/A2 Religious Studies students. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide so that debate topics can be selected randomly. This tool focuses on Christian teachings and does not refer to a specific comparative religion (making it suitable for all KS5 RS teachers). Topics are based on the OCR specification and refer to all of the non-optional content: Philosophy of Religion Religion & Ethics Debates take an ‘agree or disagree’ format: students are asked to move from one side of the room to the other depending on their response to the statements that appear. This format allows teachers to foster debates and discussions between students, it can be helpful to ask students to justify their reasons and use sensible arguments. Questions you might ask include: “What is wrong with the other position in your view?”, “Why did you choose to stand where you’re standing?”, “Why do you think people disagree so much about this question?” It is best to encourage students to pick a side rather than float in the middle: but it can also be fun to allow students to change side as the debate progresses, so that students can try to persuade one another to move. This is a great resource to use at the end of lessons if you have a few minutes left, it can be used as an entire lesson or revision session. It’s a fun way to introduce a course or to use as an ice-breaker with new classes.

The Logical Fallacy Quiz (Logical Fallacies) Critical Thinking Pack (P4C - Philosophy) [KS2 / K23]

(0)
This download is useful for any teachers who are hoping to foster critical thinking skills in KS2 or KS3 students. This resource pack contains: A double-sided A3 poster/table that identifies, describes and exemplifies 32 common logical fallacies A 32 question ‘Logical Fallacy Quiz’ (with a teacher’s answer key) An ‘analysing and evaluating philosophical arguments’ activity’ The A3 poster/table is an excellent resource in and of itself and can be used for other activities in the teaching of critical thinking skills. The quiz is designed to be used alongside the table: students work in pairs or teams to identify examples of logical fallacies. There are 32 questions - which should be ample for a long lesson. This activity can be differentiated by changing team sizes and/or shortening the quiz (allowing for more reflection time). A smaller activity is also included: it introduces the idea of ‘philosophical arguments’, soundness, validity - and provides examples of simple philosophical arguments for young learners to analyse and evaluate. This resource is designed with KS2 and KS3 students in mind.
