This fully editable lesson is designed for the AQA A-Level Specification (June 2019), focusing on Minority Influence within the topic of Social Influence. It explores how a minority can impact the beliefs and behaviors of the majority through the processes of consistency, commitment, and flexibility. With engaging activities, critical evaluations, and research-based examples such as Moscovici’s blue-green slide study, students will develop a thorough understanding of minority influence in social settings.
Key Features:
Comprehensive Lesson Slides: Introduces students to key concepts of minority influence, including the roles of consistency, commitment, and flexibility. Real-world examples like the Civil Rights Movement and LGBTQ+ rights are used to illustrate the power of minority influence in driving social change.
Interactive Activities: Includes a variety of engaging activities, such as a “Do Now” prompt, think-pair-share discussions, and case studies. Students analyze how minority groups can lead to internalization and long-lasting attitude changes using concepts like the snowball effect and deeper processing.
Research-Based Insights: Provides a detailed analysis of Moscovici’s blue-green slide study, explaining how consistency in a minority’s viewpoint can lead to greater influence. Research from Wood et al. and Martin et al. is also used to highlight key findings on minority influence.
Assessment Materials: Features exam practice questions that challenge students to apply their understanding of conformity and minority influence to hypothetical scenarios. For example, they are asked to explain how a small group of students could convince their peers to adopt an environmentally-friendly initiative using the key principles of minority influence.
Critical Evaluation: Students are encouraged to critically evaluate the strengths and limitations of research into minority influence, including the artificial nature of tasks like identifying the color of slides and the challenges of studying minority influence in real-world settings.
This resource is ideal for both classroom teaching and independent study, equipping students with a comprehensive understanding of how minority groups can drive social change and influence majority opinions.

This fully editable lesson is designed for the AQA A-Level Specification (June 2019), focusing on Social Change within the context of Social Influence. The lesson explores how processes like minority influence, conformity, and obedience contribute to societal shifts in beliefs and behaviors. Using real-world examples and research-based activities, students will gain a comprehensive understanding of how social influence can drive change.
Key Features:
Comprehensive Lesson Slides: The slides cover the six key processes involved in social change, including drawing attention, consistency, deeper processing, the augmentation principle, the snowball effect, and social cryptomnesia. Real-world examples such as the Civil Rights Movement and LGBTQ+ activism are used to illustrate each process.
Interactive Activities: Includes a “Do Now” task to engage students, as well as a summary activity where students outline the six steps of social change and apply them to historical or modern social movements. The task also encourages students to apply lessons from obedience and conformity research, such as normative and informational social influence, to real-life examples like tackling the obesity crisis.
Research-Based Insights: The lesson draws on key studies from social influence research, such as Milgram’s obedience study and Moscovici’s blue-green slide experiment, to show how these concepts relate to social change. Students are encouraged to critically evaluate the strengths and limitations of these studies.
Assessment Materials: Features exam practice questions, including short-answer questions on social change and how social influence processes contribute to it. Students are also asked to apply their knowledge of these processes to real-world scenarios like government campaigns on health issues, such as obesity.
Critical Evaluation: Students critically evaluate the role of minority influence, conformity, and obedience in social change, exploring factors like normative social influence and disobedient role models. They also examine research evidence, including Nolan et al.’s study on energy consumption, which highlights how social norms can lead to behavior change.
This lesson resource is ideal for classroom instruction and independent study, providing a detailed look at the processes that drive societal shifts and how social influence theories can be applied to modern-day social movements.
