Full lesson on the ECHR. Very simple. Links to videos in the notes. The lesson should take one hour
I’ve written a full paper 1 (for DP Global Politics Paper 1) as part of this. It is attached in the booklet along with the sources.
Two lessons of structured work designed for specifically for IB Global Politics, though it can easily be switched to another course/syllabus.
The focus is on Bangladesh as a case study, and students should know about things like the World Bank, and theory before doing this.
This is a lesson designed for both online and in-class learning. The lesson is highly structured, with scaffolding and modelling to support EAL students as well as across the ability range.
The lesson is easily adaptable to fit the needs of your class. I designed with this an entirely EAL, mixed ability Year 9/Grade 8 class in mind.
This is a fully scaffolded lesson exploring the different types of Globalisation, their development and impact on contemporary Global Politics. There are six tasks altogether, with all resources provided. Very discussion based, so should take at least two hour long lessons.
The lesson starts with an exploration of the evidence that Globalisation is happening, with students encouraged to think of local examples. Different types of Globalisation are introduced and discussed with examples, before students consider whether the Globalisation is happening or not, followed by its impact on Development and State Sovereignty. The lesson concludes with students to write a conclusion to an essay (though this could easily be changed to a full paper 2 essay).
This lesson is good to go as soon as your download it, and the lesson is easily adaptable and editable as there is no branding or fancy gimmicks on the slides. Links to the videos are in the notes on the slides. It will transfer easily to Teams, Google or any other online format. The Word Doc for students to work on a PPT to guide the lesson and provoke discussion.
This is a fully scaffolded lesson exploring the post Cold War World Order through the Fukuyama v Huntingdon debate, updated to reflect debates in 2022 and onwards. There are six tasks altogether, with all resources provided. Very discussion based, so should take at least two hour long lessons.
The lesson starts with a discussion over what constitutes a modern state, and followed by a brief examination of some developing countries. Fukuyama is introduced and anlaysed, followed by Huntingdon and the Clash of Civilizations. The last tasks are a direct comparative analysis, before a task assessing which one is more relevant in 2022. I have included additional reading to support these tasks.

This is an inquiry-based, structured and fully scaffolded series of lessons evaluating the relevance of Liberal and Neo-Liberalism in 2023. There is no excessive heavy reading for the students; everything is broken down is easily accessible chunks. Other tasks include a mix and match to develop vocab, the application of different aspects of Liberal theory in various contexts, a comparison between classical and neo-liberal theory, a TOK Exhibition link and a final assessment of the relevance of Liberalism in 2023. All tasks come with examples integrated.
There are nine tasks which are all differentiated, with all resources provided, including reading and videos. There are plenty of visual aids for EAL students. It is very discussion-based, with some research opportunities, so it should take at least four hour-long lessons due to the detail required of some of the tasks.

I created this for Auteur theory. Works well with some of the other stuff on here, but this looks at applying the theory across different types of media.
I have not used resources from a textbook to make this. Requires independent study.
Card sort task sorting out practical, ethical and theoretical factors.
I ensure students have this in front of them at all times when going through the research methods.
A load of resources plus two essay plans suitable for Marriage an Divorce patterns. Suitable for AS Sociology primarily, although some could be used for GCSE or IGCSE.
Essay plans are for CIE but could easily be adapted.
“Sirrrrrrrr… can you do us a thing with all the case studies in?”
Erm… no. You can do it yourself.
Should be handy for revision.
Probably can be adapted for other subjects.
