The topic of this revision session is: ‘The relationship between ownership and control of the media’.
It is designed for teachers using the new AQA Sociology specification at KS5. Save significant amounts of money by buying these revision sessions in bundles!
This download contains one of a series of revision sessions that use a variety of mind-mapping, discussion and debate tasks to cover a section of the specification. It includes a fully animated revision session PowerPoint and a set of ‘silent debate’ A3 worksheets [which are a great way to structure group discussions and practice exam planning technique].
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]
-Debates that ask students to move from one side of the room or the other and verbalise a defence of their position in response to a statement or rubric.
-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 session can be purchased individually or as part of various bundles depending on your needs.
Please note: the cover picture depicts some of the activities that make up this revision session, the wording within those tasks is adapted to the topic specified above and may differ from the wording depicted. Contents and tasks may vary slightly between revision sessions. The cover photo is, however, a fair depiction of the contents of the lesson.

A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
This download is for AQA Sociology GCSE (the new specification, 2017 onwards).
It refers to the topic of SOCIAL STRATIFICATION (equivalent downloads for the other 3 sections are available in our shop or in a bundle)
It is a:
-Personal Learning Checklist
-DIRT Worksheet
-Complete list of key-words
-Key-word review Worksheet
For the SOCIAL STRATIFICATION section of the course.
The worksheets ask students to:
-Indicate Red/Amber/Green for all topics on the specification.
-Indicate a confidence rating out of 10 for all topics on the specification.
-State their target and current grade
-Ask the teacher one question
-State their exam technique target
-State their revision focus
-Tell the teacher what they can do to help the student reach their target
-Highlight key-words the student is unsure about
-Indicate the total number of key-words the student is unsure about
-State 10 key-words they will research the meaning of before the next lesson.
It is therefore the perfect worksheet to structure a DIRT, progress review or revision lesson with in relation to the SOCIAL STRATIFICATION topic of AQA GCSE Sociology (2017 onwards).
Based on the new AQA Sociology specification and mark-schemes. This is a double-sided feedback sheet for A2-Level 20 mark answers.
It can be use for self, peer or teacher assessment and includes target and correction setting. It is designed for 'tick-box' assessing so as to save the teacher time, with additional space for the student or teacher to write specific targets.
As a Word document, it is easily customisable: if your class frequently struggle with one issue you can update the target setting box and it will save you having to write the same targets again and again.
These workbooks are suitable for homework, classwork or distance learning: they will help your students to get more from watching documentaries and videos.
Each of thee colourful printable booklets includes ten learning sessions spread over twenty pages. You could also just print a couple of pages from a given workbook to create a worksheet for an instant video-learning lesson: ideal for cover lessons!
This teaching resource is designed for GCSE Sociology; there is a separate workbook for each of the four main sections of the course. Please note that each workbook follows exactly the same format in terms of activities: the difference between each workbook is their covers and the video-links that are contained within.
Each 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.
Over time some of the links in the workbooks might 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 each topic: teachers should ensure that the video links included are suitable for their specific classes.

This teaching resource is designed for GCSE Sociology and deals with the ‘Crime & Deviance’ component of the specification. The workbook is suitable for all exam specifications.
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!
