<p>This is the first part of three guidance presentations. It follows the criteria for Unit 1 ‘The Role and Work of the Public Services’, which is externally examinable. I also have the other two sections uploaded to TES. This presentation is extensive and covers a brief history of the three main emergency services and the armed services and looks at their roles.</p>

<p>This is part 3 of three guidance presentations. It follows the criteria for Unit 1 ‘The Role and Work of the Public Services’, which is externally examinable. I also have the other two sections uploaded to TES. This presentation is extensive looking at government departments and spending. it covers: Education; the NHS and Public Health; Defence; The Justice System; Working together; Tendering and Partnerships; Funding etc.</p>

<p>This is designed to cover the , Level 3, Unit 1 Government and Politics, Assignment B.<br /> It looks at the alternative voting methods to the First Past the Post system in the UK. It extensively covers the second assignment.</p>

<p>This follows the WJEC Topic 1.4 Criminology.<br /> it talks about what we mean by the media, and the influence and representation media has on crime. It contains an PowerPoint, an exercise in newspaper reporting, and a test of knowledge gained.</p>

<p>This presentation extensively covers the topics needed for Learning aim A: Explore working skills used in the public service sector.</p>

<p>This is a useful guide for both ‘A’ level Sociology and ‘A’ level Criminology.<br /> it includes a test to check knowledge.</p>

<p>This presentation covers the first section of the UPS Citizenship unit, ‘Exploring the key features of Society’. This can often be quite a dry topic, so I have attempted to keep it entertaining. The PowerPoint provides talking points and there is also a question sheet to check knowledge.</p>

<p>This is a comprehensive covering of Topic 1.1 from Unit 1. It looks at different types of crimes and contains relevant links. It has a presentation to cover the topic and another to cover a test designed to thoroughly check the knowledge gained.</p>

<p>To replace the table top exercises.<br /> Both Units 13 - Command and Control, and Unit 15 - Planning and Management of Major Incidents, have an assignment based on a Table-Top exercise. This is very tricky to do withou the equipment and manpower. An easier way is a PowerPoint exercise. This is the test presentation and the answer presentation plus question sheet and back-up info. A complete lesson to assist with the assignments.</p>

<p>This is a set of teaching aids suggesting an approach to answering learning aim B. The original suggestion is to:<br /> a) Simulate an incident – which is tricky in a college environment; or,<br /> b) Perform a crime prevention campaign.</p> <p>I have designed a classoom activity that gets the learners performing a presentation on two main relevant topics. This is designed to be performed in groups of three and it was very successful. The learners can even mark each other anonymously. It is a self contained solution to this assignment.</p>

<p>This is a presentation to guide the students to answering the first assignment of Unit 3: ‘Explore the relationship between global affairs and the media’.<br /> It is informative, entertaining and covers contemporary issues.</p>

<p>An intro to parliament with a particular look at the main ministerial departments. There is an exercise for the students to do to test their knowledge during the Presentation. Also there is a test at the end of the lesson to check learning.</p>

<p>For WJEC Criminology. An overview of the main personnel involved in solving crime, exploring their limitations and looking at some high profile case studies. There is a group exercise to solidify and check knowledge.<br /> There is no category on this site for Criminology (not for want of asking!) so I have files it under Sociology.</p>

<p>This is part 2 of three guidance presentations. It follows the criteria for Unit 1 ‘The Role and Work of the Public Services’, which is externally examinable. I also have the other two sections uploaded to TES. This presentation is extensive and covers: Local Authority Services; Central Government and Voluntary Services.</p>

<p>An introduction to the Media: this can be used for the BTEC Public Services Unit, or as a general introduction to the subject of media. It explains what we mean by the media, the different types of media and explains all the key terms. It also poses a few questions to the learners .</p>

<p>This is to prepare learners for the first assignment of Unit 17 Preparing to Respond to Emergency Incidents; Learning aim A: Examine the causes of emergency incidents.</p>

<p>An introduction to Unit 4, Discipline in the Uniformed Public Services. This is designed to make students think about the role of discipline in their lives and society in general. It will provoke discussion and contains some written tasks.</p>

<p>This is a presentation that covers the first assignment for the Level 2 BTEC First award: Unit 7; CRIME AND ITS EFFECTS ON SOCIETY AND INDIVIDUALS - Learning aim A: Understand the impact of criminal behaviour. It has relevant links and some ideas for group participation.</p>

<p>This can be used to encourage the class to think in small groups. Ideal as an ice-breaker, or anytime the teacher needs a break! It is a fun quiz with no particular prior knowledge needed. All the answers can be reasoned and it gives a chance for the learners to participate in offering ideas. The solutions are provided, plus an explanation of how I have found it works best.</p> <p>I have used it in a BTEC vocational setting; however, it can be used in many different lessons, as a break or for a team building exercise.</p>
