Resources
*Dice (enough for each group work), scissors, and worksheets.
**Teacher’s instructions **
a) Give out the Reading Sheet: Interactionist Approach to Schizophrenia to each student. Allocate enough time for students to read this. Students must concentrate carefully on the information as there will be questions set on this.
b) Each group will need to have a set of questions cards. They will need to be cut out. There are 24 questions set. See Sheet: Question Cards.
c) Students need to be put into group and sat at a table with its pack of question cards in the middle, face down. Each person is allocated a number from 1 to 6. The students work in groups of six, however if numbers don’t allow for 6 have smaller groups with void numbers on the die (i.e. in a group of 4, if number 5 and 6 comes up, the die would have to be rolled again.
d) The group decided who goes first. The first player rolls the die and the person with the number shown picks up the first card and responds to the question. The questions are then taken out of the pack or placed back in the pack at the bottom. The second player throws the die. The person with the number shown picks up the card and responds so forth until it takes to get through the entire cards. The question can be set alphabetically or can be shuffled and answered in no particular order.
e) Scoring is optional. If the group feels the answer is correct, the play gets a point. If it is a wrong answer they score no points. The winner is the one who scores the most points

An engaging whole class activity, where questions are set from a PowerPoint, which require students to find the correct answer from the information sheet. First student/pair who gets the correct answer, win. This can be as a knowledge builder or a revision. A student led activity.
Resources required:
Miniature whiteboards, board marker pens, wipes, and worksheet A (enough for each pair/student)
Uploading all my resource! Some of them have taken quite a bit of time to create, but I am trying to offer value for money - so I am keeping them as cheap as possible (they are not perfect, but please consider this before giving me a negative review!).
To exchange or not to exachange?
A fun whole class lesson on IV and DV
Instructions for activity:
Cut out each study and the keywords that have the IV and DV. Mix them up and then randomly give each student one study slip and one keyword IV/DV slip (that does not belong to the study).
The students will need to read the study and attempt to identify the IV and DV.
Next, the students will need to get up and mingle with each other and find the correct IV and DV slip of paper for their study (which another student has). Once the student has found the correct IV and DV, they swap the IV and DV slip of paper (they keep their study).
Now that the student has the correct (assuming it is correct) they need to identify which is the IV and which is the DV.
Even though the students exchange the IV and DV slips of paper, one will still have slip that belongs to someone else.

Summary
An engaging whole class activity, where questions are set from a PowerPoint, which require students to find the correct answer from the information. The first student/pair who gets the correct answer, win the point.
Resources
Miniature whiteboards, board marker pens, wipes, and worksheet A (enough for each pair/student)
Instructions
Give each person or pair of students (same table) a miniature whiteboard, board marker pen, a wipe, and worksheet A.
Give out the worksheet A for each student/pair and ask the students to read page 1 (study 1) ONLY (no need to go further). While they are reading, make sure you have the PowerPoint questions ready to be shown on a whiteboard display.
For each page (study) there are several questions. Display the first question from the PowerPoint to the students. For each question it will tell you how many correct words they are looking from the information sheet (this is shown in brackets underneath the question). Once they have found the correct number of words, they right this down on the white board.
The first student/pairs to display the answer above their head wins. They get one point. You will need to keep a score.
Go through all the questions set for page 1. At the left-hand bottom corner on the PowerPoint, you will see ‘End of Questions’ on some of the slides. This means there are no more questions to be asked for that page on the information sheet. The students will now need to read the next information page (e.g., page 2). Once they have read this the next questions are given and so on.
