AQA Sociology A LevelA* Notes -Education (NewSpec)
<p>Made A star <strong>essay plans</strong> for all topics in education for sociology AQA level the new spec. Works like this - the A01 and A02 boxes are the Point (A01) and Explanation (A02) ,the box next to it, is the evaluation (A03). 2 boxes next to each other make a paragraph. Their are around 6 - 8 boxes and combining two boxes together make 3 to 4 solid paragraphs which are needed to create 20 markers and 30 markers. For some topics i’ve added more boxes just to make more points/evaluations if needed. (some students can write 5 paragraphs or more in the given time)<br />
Note - some of these boxes can be reversed using A03 box as the point and A02/A01 box as the evaluation.<br />
This is the PEEL concept but placed in boxes as essay plans as it is easy to follow.<br />
the highlighted words are important names and some coloured words are important perspectives e.g Pink is liberal feminism, Purple - radical feminism, Red - Marxists, and Green is functionalist. Some words are shortcuts such as m/c is middle class and w/c is working class and ed is education. They go in- order of the specification.<br />
I was a sociology student, and was predicted an A* and my end result was an A :). These essay plans really helped. I hope you find them helpful too.<br />
I have made these essay plans for other topics in A level sociology such as, families, religion, and crime.<br />
information used in these notes are from the aqa a level sociology book one including as a level and the revision guide.</p>
