This film is from the series The Eichmann Show available on BBC Teach. Due to the sensitive nature of the subject matter, we strongly advise teacher viewing before watching with your pupils. The televised trial of Adolf Eichmann brought to a global audience many of the previously unknown horrors of the Holocaust. On 11th December 1961, Eichmann, sitting impassive and unemotional, was pronounced guilty of all charges against him and sentenced to death. But how far can responsibility for the Holocaust be attributed to Eichmann? Was it right to blame Eichmann for it all? This short film explores the background to the Nazi paranoia about a Jewish conspiracy to take over Germany and Eichmann’s responsibility for the ‘de-Jewification’ of Germany leading up to World War Two. Historian, Professor David Cesarani examines the evidence, analysing how Eichmann presented himself as hapless, with no choice, following orders, and it was not for him to question the instructions of the ‘big bosses’. However, he eventually gave away his personal hatred for the Jewish people under the pressure of cross-examination. The purpose of BBC’s content is to inform, educate and entertain.

This film is from the series Emmeline Pankhurst and the Suffragettes available on BBC Teach. Sally Lindsay examines the life of the leader of the Suffragettes, Emmeline Pankhurst, and traces the people, places, and events that turned her into the leader of the ‘Votes for Women’ campaign group. Formally known as the Women’s Social and Political Union, the Suffragettes were a national organisation that fought for female voting rights when only men had the vote. In interviews with Emmeline’s descendants and expert historians, Sally learns about Emmeline’s early years in industrial Manchester and discovers more about the people and the political and social events that made her believe votes for women could only be won by military means. Teacher Notes Students could examine a number of different images of Emmeline Pankhurst and be asked to think about what each picture tells them about Emmeline Pankhurst. When watching the video students could answer the following questions: What was Emmeline’s childhood like and what impact did this have on her politically? How did her work as a registrar affect her? What was the WSPU and what was her role in it? Why do you think Emmeline Pankhurst was named the woman of the 20th century? Why is she a significant individual in History? Students could then produce a front cover for TIME magazine or write a short interview with Emmeline Pankhurst. At the end of the lesson students could be asked to consider what three key things have they learnt about her today and what surprised them the most about her life?

This film is from the series Science of the Harvest available on BBC Teach. Stefan Gates reveals the importance of the cold of winter for the development of summer fruit, through the mysterious process of vernalisation. Using the example of an apple tree, he unpicks how vernalisation actually works. Teacher Notes This film could act as a stimulus for a project about the circadian and annual rhythms of plants. Students could be taught about the way that plants have adapted to their environments. Can students explain why deciduous plants drop their leaves, or pines have needles in place of leaves? Can students identify how plants that live in tropical rainforests are different from those in alpine conditions? The learning in this film could easily be extended to cover the annual cycles of these plants. Students could look at the impact that poor weather has on farming in a more general sense. What implications does global warming have for UK farmers? This may mean more rain as well as higher temperatures.

This film is from the series Growth Mindset available on BBC Teach. Meesha and Lucas are in a maths lesson. Meesha is happy to take on the challenges set by the teacher, but Lucas is more reluctant. Meesha has a growth mindset. She believes intelligence, talent and ability are open to change. So she believes she can get better at maths. This means she tries, puts in effort and works hard to master the learning. Lucas has a fixed mindset. He doesn’t believe he can get better at maths. He thinks you’re either good at maths or your not. And he is definitely not good at maths. Lucas and Meesha make different decisions about their learning because of their different mindsets. As time goes on, Meesha and Lucas talk. Meesha explains that you can change your mindset - and she encourages Lucas to do this. Gradually, Lucas starts to think in a different way. He starts to think that he can do maths, that he can get better. As he changes his mindset, so Lucas changes his behaviour. He starts to have a go, to keep trying and to persist. We see him improve his maths skills as a result. Meesha and Lucas demonstrate the differences between a growth mindset and a fixed mindset. They show how each one influences your thoughts, actions and behaviours. And they also show that anyone can develop a growth mindset, no matter who they are. Teacher Notes This could be used as an introduction to growth mindsets and a fantastic tool for helping learners reflect on how they think about learning and their own potential to develop.

This film is from the series Exploring the Past - Post-War Britain available on BBC Teach. Fifteen-year-old Amba talks to her grandmother about her working life in the 1950s. She left school at 14 and worked in food factories until she married at 17. She returned to work part-time when her child went to school, in order to save up for expensive items such as a fridge, a washing machine and a car. Dr Claire Langhamer from the University of Sussex puts this experience into context, saying that it reflects the experience of many women at the time who worked to earn extra money but saw their main job as a wife and mother. Amba speaks to Patricia Barrett who worked in a bank for 35 years and never wanted to marry. She explains how women were treated differently to men at her bank – they earned less, were put on temporary contracts when they got married and weren’t offered overseas postings.

This film is from the series Science Britannica availabel on BBC Teach. Professor Brian Cox outlines the historical context of the era in which Newton began to be interested in the nature of the visible spectrum obtained using a prism. He recreates Newton’s simple experiment that proved that colours were the pure components of white light, rather than being impurities. He explains that Newton observed aspects of the world, came up with theories to explain them and then tested them with experiments. He then looks at Newton’s ‘Principia Mathematica’, before concluding that science is about simplifying the complex world around us, creating controllable and repeatable experiments to test hypotheses, and then transferring understanding to the complex world outside the laboratory. Teacher Notes Before showing this film, ask your students to share and write down in groups what they already know about Sir Isaac Newton.

This film is from the series Gastro Lab available on BBC Teach. Paralympic athlete, Jordanne Whiley, explains why carbohydrates are important in her diet. Meanwhile, Stefan Gates uses a ‘sugar shotgun’ to illustrate how energy is released from food and creates heat. We hear about the difference between complex and simple carbohydrates, their food sources, their function in the body and the energy they release. We are advised to get 55% of our calories from carbohydrate rich foods, particularly complex carbohydrates such as wholegrains, wholemeal bread, rice and potatoes. The links between simple carbohydrates, or sugar, and the risk of tooth decay, heart disease and weight gain are explained. The idea of balancing energy in and energy out is highlighted. Teacher Notes You could ask your students to compare the amount of calories per 100g or per portion found in a selection of carbohydrate-based foods, by examining food labels or using nutritional analysis. These foods could be placed in rank order and evaluated as to which would be the best to eat before a marathon.

This film is from the series The Imagineers available on BBC Teach. Fran Scott meets Dr Eleanor Stride from the University of Oxford who is working on using nano-bubbles to deliver drugs to specific parts of the human body. Dr Stride explains that cancer drugs are poisonous and have many side effects. Her research uses microscopic bubbles of gas coated with a special shell containing these drugs which are then injected into the patient’s blood. More than half of the drugs we develop are too poisonous to work. Using nano-bubbles means a much smaller dose is required and so this technology may allow us to use more drugs in the future. Teacher Notes This clip could be shown as an example of how a basic product (chemotherapy drugs) can undergo significant change through concentrating on one aspect (in this case, delivery). As a class, discuss the basic brief and its aims. Students should see that the chosen solution, involving use of magnets and ultrasound, is not dictated by the brief, but is just one way of answering it. A practical exercise could then be carried out, based on a delivery system for a fragile object. In groups, students could invent systems that will transport eggs from one side of the class to the other, leaving the contents (without shell) in a bowl, ready for use. When the egg is broken, how the shell is separated, and how automated the system is, is up to them.

This film is from the series Shakespeare Themes available on BBC Teach. An exploration of the sources and influences in Shakespeare’s plays. Shakespeare pulled in influences from many sources. In Julius Caesar he borrows phrases and words from other writers. In Macbeth we find him using his knowledge of the Bible as a reference. While in Romeo and Juliet he uses elements of nature to reflect emotion. Teacher Notes This film could be used to look in more detail at what influenced Shakespeare’s writing and the influence his work has had on others. Students could take one of his plays and find examples of influences and sources in his storytelling process. Students could explore the different kinds of sources Shakespeare takes inspiration from and how best to stage his plays when trying to add the influence of modern society.
