For the first task, you need to give students the dice diagram. They should cut two out and write the questions on one and the answers on another. The main task involves students taking on the role of a key thinker and interviewing each other.

Core Values of Socialism

(2)
Students were asked to complete a mind map of the core values over half-term. The aim of this lesson is to consolidate their learning by recalling as much as they can, creating a learning grid and identifying links with other ideologies. Core value slides are deliberately text heavy as some of my groups will use this information for space learning tasks instead of completing A3 questions on the core values.

Liberalism: Enlightenment, Liberty and Capitalism

This is a year 13 lesson that I put together. The information for the group task is from the Neil Mcnaughton book and a selection of other books that we use in class. I also gave my students the Philip Allan handouts on ideologies (Alan Dobson). Hope you find this useful! Please review my resource and let me know how it could be improved.

Core Values of Liberalism

This follows on from the previous lesson on Enlightenment, Capitalism and Liberty. Students recap on previous learning and explore the various core values of liberalism through a carousel activity. You may want to split the values across two lessons or ask pupils to present the core values along with a handout as this is a text heavy lesson! You could also change the images for the different core values. I have added an A3 sheet for students to complete.

Types of Liberalism

In this lesson students have to explore the different types of Liberalism. First of all they have to recap on everything that they have learnt so far using the A3 images of the Core Values. Students then have to research the different types of Liberalism and then deliver a mini lesson to the rest of the class. Students then peer assess each lesson using the proforma which I will also attach.

Issues in Liberalism

(1)
Following on from the lesson on key liberal thinkers, students are required to recap on previous learning in the first two activities. The learning grid is a fantastic way to encourage students to make links between the different aspects of Liberalism. The main task is for students to think about the main issues within the relationship between democracy and liberalism. I would recommend asking students to use the learning grid to enable them to mind map the issues and then feedback to the rest of the class. The key question is based around an exam question.

Several lessons relating to the Civil Rights period in America. A couple of things I have borrowed from another member of TES such as the Rosa Parks investigation (thank you for sharing). <br /> <br /> All feedback welcome. The textbook is the IGCSE course companion book as well as the Edexcel GCSE Divided Union Book (Steve Waugh).
Liberalism Learning GridQuick View

Liberalism Learning Grid

(1)
At the end of the topic you could give students this learning grid. Students need to explain/analyse the links and connections between the difference images. e.g. the battery would represent positive/negative liberty. They may roll the dice again and then land on freedom. They would then have to explain the link between both squares. Instructions: 1. Hand out the learning grids. You will also need dice and some counters. students roll the dice twice so that they move along the top and then move down to find a square. 2. Repeat step 1 again. 3. Analyse!

Key Liberal Thinkers

(1)
This activity is based on Solo Taxonomy. Students consider the main key thinkers of liberalism and organize them into roles based on how effective students consider them to be. They then compare and contrast between them and finally consider how effective they are in defending liberalism. I wanted a more interesting way of teaching key thinkers! :)
