In this final double lesson of the social influence unit, we look at how social change occurs. We start by looking at the two causes of social change i.e minority influence and majority influence. We look at the 6 step process, followed by some videos of real life social changes like the Suffragettes and Civil rights movement to apply the 6 step process. A 6 mark exam style question with peer assessment grid so students can use the criteria to mark answers before responding with improvements. Students then complete an evaluation activity before going through the points. Some true or false questions before we have a break.
In the second part of the lesson we start off with some MCQs before beginning a group task, students are given real life examples to focus on, to explain their social change and the process it went through. Students present back their findings before we have two kahoot quizzes with a lot of questions to recap the whole unit of social influence!

In this double lesson, we focus on resistance to social influence including dispositional reasons (locus of control) and situational reasons (social support). We start by completing Rotter’s questionnaire so students get an idea of where they stand on the locus of control continuum. We go through the theory, some video clips, true or false style questions, 4 mark exam style question with answer, evaluation activity.
In the second part of the lesson we look at the London riots in 2011 to illustrate resistance to social influence through social support. We recap Asch and Milgram’s studies which highlights social support as an important factor in resistance. Finally, we work on developing essay writing skills plus a 16 mark question. We finish off with a debate, MCQ and box plenary.

In this double lesson, learners further develop their knowledge and understanding on obedience, with the focus on dispositional explanations - the authoritarian personality.

We look at Adorno et. al’s study, some MCQs to consolidate before completing the F scale (questionnaire used in Adorno’s study). We then go onto an evaluation activity where students identify strengths and criticisms from given evaluation points, this can be followed with a class discussion on the points. A exam style A02 question, debate question, group task to complete learning on obedience before ending with a box plenary and kahoot quiz.

In this lesson, learners develop their understanding on the explanations of obedience, with the emphasis on the agentic state, autonomous state and legitimacy of authority. We start with some thought provoking questions, before looking at agency theory in more detail with videos and visuals. We also look at a key study by Hofling et. al (1966) on nurses and their obedience to doctors that are asking them to administer high doses of an unknown drug. Some true or false questions, MCQ, evaluation points, 4 mark question with model answer, 16 mark essay practice with guidance and indicative points followed by self/peer assessment grid, so students can reflect on their essays and make improvements.

In this lesson, we build on our knowledge of Stanley Milgram’s research into Obedience by looking at the variations that Milgram carried out in a later study.

We then look at the different variations and how they impact on obedience rates. MCQ, a 4 mark exam style question and answer, evaluation practice, box plenary and a kahoot quiz to finish with.

This lesson introduces learners to the topic of Obedience, as investigated by Milgram in 1963.

We then introduce Stanley Milgram, his motivation for studying obedience, the details of his study, conclusions and evaluation. Video tasks and a sheet to complete while watching the video, so students can extract the key information from this study, rather than just telling the students. Some consolidation questions and an evaluation activity before finishing off with a box plenary.

This lesson introduces learners to the famous Asch experiment and we start by carrying out the experiment in class as a starter (instructions at the start). After carrying out the study, students can watch the study in action while getting the key information down on aims, method, results and conclusions. We then look at Asch’s extended study which was done 4 years later by Asch on variations that can affect conformity such as group size, unanimity and task difficulty. Some questions to consolidate learning through MCQs and true or false before we look at evaluating Asch’s study. A 4 mark exam style question for students to attempt, model answer provided to compare answers before finishing with a debate and box plenary.

This free lesson introduces learners to the different types of conformity and the explanations for conformity. We start with an engaging starter which demonstrates conformity in the classroom. We then look at what conformity actually is, with different examples relating to real life. We focus on the three types of conformity (compliance, identification and internalisation), before looking at the two explanations for conformity (normative social influence and informational social influence).
A 4 mark exam style question with a model answer, true or false questions, discussions to consolidate knowledge and real life examples to contextualise. We end with a debate question and a box plenary.
