IMPORTANT: Some of these activities refer to the textbook “Edexcel GCSE (9-1) History, Medicine through time, c1250-present” (editor Leonard A. and published by Pearson) ISBN 9781292127378 and will not be usable without a copy of this text.
This Edexcel 9-1 GCSE unit covers around 2 lessons depending upon your class and their overall ability/work rate. I have grouped two separate lessons/resource sets into one sale item as by this stage of the course I found that I was quite eager to get though the final content and that my students were becoming ready to move on to something fresh.
Aims and Objectives:
- To learn about the improvements in diagnosis: the impact of the availability of blood tests, scans and monitors.
- To learn about the extent of change in treatment: advances in medicines, including magic bullets and antibiotics.
The Power Points lead students through all activities with accompanying worksheets. They also provide feedback/answers at intervals which is handy as this part of the course is rather content-heavy. Activities are largely worksheet based and focus on analysing reasons for change. Worksheets provide an information overview using time lines etc. to reduce note-taking and speed up this section of the course. For assessment, I have included a 4 mark exam question on changes in diagnosis with advice, structure and the oportunity for peer assessment.
