This PowerPoint is a collection of thought-provoking, mind-boggling thought experiments that can be used to support revision and essay technique (providing illustrations and examples) or to engage a new cohort of students!
The thought experiments range from ones within the specification (Gilbert Ryle’s University example and Descartes’ Waking Dream) to ones a little outside of the direct spec, but are nonetheless relevant (such as Derek Parfit’s teletransportation paradox and Hume’s Indian and the ice example).
Created for the OCR specification, but can be adapted for other exam boards easily, due to the assessment objectives being the same.
The resource can be downloaded as PowerPoint and PDF - for compatibility. In addition, a ‘printer’ version is included in the file so this can be used as a paper resource/handout/homework.
Please give feedback! I am always happy to respond to comments - whether positive or constructive - this will help to improve the quality of my resources in the future and, more importantly, the quality of pupils’ RE/RS education in general - which is what we’re all here for!
