This is the Personal Learning Checklist (PLC) for the religion of Buddhism for GCSE level students following the OCR B Full-Course Specification: for the 'Beliefs, Teachings & Practices' section of the course [section A].
In other words: it is a PLC covering the topics students need to know for the first year of study, for the religion of Buddhism.
If you are teaching this religion for OCR B R.S. - this is a great tool for your students to help them keep track of their learning, and help you monitor the classes strengths and weaknesses. It serves as a highly efficient form of self-assessment.
On the reverse of the sheet are other useful measures that allow teachers to gauge a student's confidence and reflective abilities.
The Personal Learning Checklists (PLC):
-Allows the student to see clearly what they need to know for the exam.
-Allows the student to communicate to their teacher how they can be best helped.
-Gets the student to analyse their progress in relation to their target grade.
-Encourages students to reflect in a structured manner on their necessary revision focusses.
-Gets students to establish both a revision and an exam technique focus.
The complete resources I used for teaching 'The Sociology of Work' at GCSE level.
A few of these files are 'works in progress' - but most are complete lessons, revision materials, assessment materials, and lots of activities that should comprise almost all of what you need to teach this section of the course.
Lessons Include:
1) How work socialises people
2) How employment effects life chances
3) Sectors of employment and industry
4)Distribution and consequences of unemployment
5) Alienation, computerisation & automation
6) Marxist views
7) Feminist views
8) Exam Technique
Also includes the very useful Personal Learning Checklist and 'Take Away Menu' worksheet for revision guidance.
690+ Debates, presented in a variety of fun and engaging formats.
