(1)
This download contains practice assessment materials for AQA GCSE Sociology (Education). It contains 5 exam sections, 5 mark-schemes, and 5 model 12-mark answers. An ‘exam section’ is half of a full-exam: students should complete it in 50 minutes, making these ideal for assessment lessons. This download covers the topic of ‘Sociology of Education’ - you can save money buy buying assessment materials for all four-sections here. Complete units for GCSE Sociology can be downloaded here. Please note: These are not official exam scripts, I do not work for AQA: I have aimed to make reasonable practice exam-questions based on the specimin material already provided. All items are editable: if you think the 12-mark model-answers are too intimidating, feel free to reduce them. Copyright Adam Godwin (2018) - strictly not for re-distribution.

Meditation & Metacognition! [Metacognitive Tool - 5/20]

Meditation & Metacognition! [Metacognitive Tool - 5/20]

(1)
Meditation and mindfulness are central metacognitive skills: since metacognition is the personal reflection and exploration of thought and learning - what could be more direct that learning to carefully observe the operations of the mind through introspection? We view meditation as the ultimate form of ‘Deep Metacognition’. Our ‘Metacognitive Meditation Pack’ focuses on secular (non-religious) meditation techniques; the pack includes everything you need to bring meditation to your school and, unlike other meditation teaching resources, ours is focused on how meditation can enhance concentration, thought-regulation and learning. The download includes six resources: An Introduction to Meditation Meditation & Metacognition: How Meditation Can Boost Learning Using Meditation to Train Concentration Meditation & Gratitude: Improving Attitudes, Energy-Levels & Motivation Meditation Instructions (A Multi-Use Tool With Instructions for Six Different Types of Meditation) The Whole-School Meditation Poster Collection (Contains Ten Posters!) It is a useful tool not just for boosting metacognitive and learning power but also for enhancing your school’s PSHE and SMSC provisions. We offer a range of whole-school metacognition resources that aim to enhance metacognitive skills and strategies in students aged 11-16.

The Metacognitive Debate Generator [2/20]
godwin86godwin86

The Metacognitive Debate Generator [2/20]

(1)
This PowerPoint included 101 debate prompts. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide so that debate topics can be selected randomly. Each prompt is designed to trigger reflection on a metacognition or learning-power issue, examples include: “A health body leads to a healthy mind” “It is possible to know too much” and “Everyone is born with an equal capacity for success in school.” Debates take an ‘agree or disagree’ format: students are asked to move from one side of the room to the other depending on their response to the statements that appear. This format allows teachers to foster debates and discussions between students, it can be helpful to ask students to justify their reasons and use sensible arguments. Questions you might ask include: “What is wrong with the other position in your view?”, “Why did you choose to stand where you’re standing?”, “Why do you think people disagree so much about this question?” It is best to encourage students to pick a side rather than float in the middle: but it can also be fun to allow students to change side as the debate progresses, so that students can try to persuade one another to move. This is a great resource to use at the end of lessons if you have a few minutes left, it can be used as an entire lesson. Thank you for looking at our resources!

Metacognition Sticky-Note Challenge! [Metacognitive Tool - 9/20]

Metacognition Sticky-Note Challenge! [Metacognitive Tool - 9/20]

(1)
This session, based around metacognition learning activities that use sticky-notes (‘Post-It’ notes), focuses on the factors, skills and choices that can enhance learning-power: the aim is to get students to engage in metacognitive reflection in a fun and engaging way. Students will need an ample supply of post-it notes that they can write on and place on the board. There are approximately 50 slides, comprised of four main styles of activity: short plenary activities are also included between the main tasks. Simply run the PowerPoint and work your way through: skipping ahead as necessary using the integrated buttons on the presentation. The PowerPoint is designed to be used multiple times in multiple sessions: do not try to complete all tasks in one sitting! The idea is that you will use a few slides from each activity, as well as the AfL/plenary tasks, in each session: this will keep sessions sufficiently varied to keep students engaged. The PowerPoint is very flexible: you can use this for short sessions of 10-15 minutes, or longer sessions up to an hour in length. Thank you for looking at our resources!

Metacognition - Philosophy for Children (P4C) Collection (x20) [Metacognitive Tool 14/20]

(1)
Metacognition and philosophy go hand-in-hand because metacognition involves thinking deeply about the nature of thought, learning, knowledge & the mind. For this reason we have put together a comprehensive whole-school philosophy resource whose sole purpose is to make students think deeply about life. This product comprises twenty philosophical debate and discussion sessions, the following topics are covered: Animal Rights & Caring for Animals Art & The Nature of Beauty Big Issues in Politics British Values Caring For The Environment Celebrating Other Cultures & Religions Christian Philosophy & Ethics Citizenship Computers, Robots & Artificial Intelligence Epistemology Ethics & Morality Friendship, Exclusion & Bullying Literacy, Reading & The Value of Literature Metaphysics & The Nature of Reality Moral & Spiritual Development Space, Aliens & The Universe The Biggest Questions in Philosophy The Philosophy of History The Philosophy of Maths “Who Am I?” & The Philosophy of Identity We hope this collection covers all of the bases in relation to the main fields and central debates of philosophy. Each session features a variety of debate and discussion prompts. The ‘Philosophy Boxes Method’ presents students with a set of ‘mystery boxes’, when a student selects one of the boxes they are presented with 1 of 21 discussion/debate activities: each uses 1 of 8 different formats. The presentation has integrated AfL so that teachers can test knowledge at any point in the lesson. There are 10 different plenary/assessments slides to choose from: an integrated menu means teachers can switch to and from AfL tasks easily and at any time. The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes. The nature of the design makes these sessions highly flexible: each PowerPoint file can be used for short sessions (5-10 minutes) or much longer sessions (up to 2 hours!) - it allows for classroom practitioners to be flexible and adaptable. It can, therefore, be used in lessons or as a tutor-time activity. Most sessions can be used multiple times. This is an ideal resource to bring P4C (Philosophy for Children) into your school: the range of topics means there’s ‘something for every one’ and that the cross-curricular connections are very broad. We hold that engaging students in philosophical discussion, debates and thinking is one of the best ways to enhance their critical-thinking skills and Higher-Order Thinking Skills: the metacogntive benefits of philosophy in schools should not be underestimated!

Motivational Reflection Sessions [Metacognition Tool - 17/20]

Motivational Reflection Sessions [Metacognition Tool - 17/20]

(1)
An important aspect of metacognition concerns the student’s understanding of motivation, after all: metacognition is the personal study of one’s thought and learning-processes and student motivation towards a given subject is influenced by their thoughts and attitudes towards it. One of the surest ways to increase motivation is by providing a clear understanding of the reasons, benefits and advantages that come with studying particular subjects. This download contains over thirty PowerPoints presentations: one for each school subject. The purpose of the presentations is to lead discussions and debates about the value of each subject. Each session contains: A Starter Discussion Prompts Video Links A Writing-Based Assessment Task Plenaries/AfL Debate Prompts The general strategy of the sessions is to get students to: Explore the personal significance of the selected subject Understand why the subject is taught Identify the importance of the subject: how it benefits the student and wider community Determine potential connections to their career ambitions Each session follows the same format so it’s probably best not to use them all at once with students within a short time-frame! They are, nonetheless, a great resource to have available to your teachers so that they can be used as interventions for individuals or groups that are struggling with motivation in a given subject. The preview images show the general approach each session follows, using the ‘English Literature’ session as an example. Thank you for looking at our resources!
