The topic of this revision session is: ‘The socialisation process and the role of the agencies of socialisation’.
This revision session features:
-A ‘grid of learning’ post-it task (to focus students on the day’s topic and refresh their memories of the basics)
-A 'competitive mind-mapping task (which can be completed on the whiteboard or on A3 paper)
-A silent debate task (with 6 x A3 silent debate worksheets in an editable .doc file) [nb. allowing group conversation, instead of silence, is also an effective approach]

-A concluding ‘One thing I am still uncertain about…’ post-it question.
The revision sessions can be used in a number of ways:
-As revision sessions during a revision period of term-time leading up to exams
-Sandwiched between lessons as they are taught throughout the year as a way of solidifying and assessing learning

This lesson is designed to introduce the concept of secondary socialisation, predominantly through Education. There is some comparative analysis with primary socialisation with a bit on particularistic and universalistic standards.
There is not that much detail here. As I say, it is introductory stuff designed to introduce concepts and get the students thinking and doing something.
