In this lesson students will watch the 52-minute documentary entitled ‘Inside Mao’s China’ on YouTube. This worksheet includes a summary of this 2016 documentary and 18 questions for students to answer as they watch.
Afterwards there are some activities designed to hone students’ skills. Firstly, they are given a source (quotations from Mao) and students must evaluate its usefulness and justify their answer. (There are hints in the document). Secondly, they are given 2 propaganda posters which they need to thoroughly analyse. Students must complete a table using the PICTURE acronym (explained in document).
Finally, they are given two photographs which they must complete a CAMPORUM table for (this is a combination of analysing and evaluating).
A homework activity is included (students must create an infographic to demonstrate their learning. (A document explaining infographics is provided for student reference.)
Resources designed for the new senior Modern History syllabus (implemented in QLD in 2019). The end of term assessment for this unit was an Independent Source Investigation.
The content would also be useful more broadly for students in other states and countries with an interest in the China (1931-1976). The other resources are also available in my store – Aussie_Resources.
