A 17-page colour A4 workbook designed for the Sociological Research Methods component of the AQA GCSE Sociology course.
The work book features tasks that ask students to generate hypotheses and then plan four separate sociological studies: outlining their methods, sampling, secondary sources and justifications for their choices. It also includes a PLC for this section of the course.
This workbook is an ideal homework for students to get on with whilst covering the Research Methods unit. It is relevant to any GCSE Sociology teacher. It can also be used as the focal point of lessons.
Check out our 10-lesson unit for this section f the course! :)
This resource pack is the sum total of three years teaching OCR Philosophy & Ethics, and contains all resources necessary for the teaching of the philosophy half of the course: assuming your focus is on Christianity.
It contains over 200 files, covering both AS & A2.
Most of the resources have been made myself and cannot be found elsewhere. For copyright reasons I have not included the videos, instead I have included a file listing the relevant YouTube videos referred to in some lessons. Most topics have complete printable notes, most have PPTS or associated lessons, and Worksheets: some of the resources are offered as ‘works in progress’. A large variety of assessment materials and feedback tools have been included.
Certainly an excellent resource for new teachers of the subject, since this download contains everything I used whilst successfully teaching the subject myself.
Given the hundreds of hours that have gone into creating these resources I am proud to sell them at the very reasonable introductory price of £9.99
