A-level psychology- [edexcel]- Factors affecting prejudice

This is an A-Level psychology lesson which focuses on the social psychology unit. The lesson consists of situational and personal factors affecting prejudice. The lesson is designed to last 90 minutes, however I would imagine it would take longer so a homework task is also included. The majority of the lesson requires students to work in pairs- they then teach their pair what they have found it (mainly student led).

THIS LESSON REQUIRES USE OF THE A-LEVEL PSYCHOLOGY TEXTBOOK 1 (EYE BOOK).

Included:

• Starter task - unscramble the key words, answers provided.
• Title page- encouraging students to start to think about how and why our personality could lead to prejudice behaviours.
• Outline of how individual differences can lead to prejudice. - teacher led
• Outline of how situational and cultural factors can lead to prejuduce. - teacher led
• Instructions about how the paired learning task is going to work.
• Questions for students to answer based on individual and situational factors- textbook is needed for this task. If you do not have the textbooks in school, please email me at amyfo7@live.co.uk and I can send you over scanned copies.
• Question sheets for students to complete based on situational and personal factors- attached as word documents.
• Homework/ extension task. Summary sheet which includes all factors students need to be aware of- students to fill in using their notes/ reading/ knowledge and understanding. Attached as a separate document.
