Global Perspectives Individual Report Assessment for Learning Lesson

The lesson begins with a starter activity in which students are invited to guess the weighting of the three components (Play Your Cards Right style).
After this there is a second starter where they have to pick out the correct word count from a choice of four.
The starter activities conclude with a couple of quick anagrams of key terms (Analysis and Perspectives).
There are then clear aims and objectives which are graduated (all will/most will/some will) and students are invited to co-construct the aim with the teacher.
There are then a series of slides and rubrics for designing a question and mapping out a good report.
After this an exemplar of a top graded report is provided and students are invited to complete an assessment for learning task to identify ten aspects of the highest band of the mark scheme. They cut these out and glue them on the exemplar work. This leads to a discussion about the anatomy of a great individual report. These include things like having three points, referencing, justifying the issues etc.
Some examples from individual reports are given for each of the AFL criteria and a copy of the top band aspects of the mark schemes is included.
The lesson then concludes with a Have I Got News For You style plenary where students are invited to fill in the gaps to show their understanding.
At the end I have included a link to a YouTube guide I’ve created which you might wish to set for homework/consolidation task.

I love teaching Global Perspectives IGCSE but it can be tricky to structure each of the components. I really hope this PPT helps you deliver this aspect of the course and that it helps your students achieve highly. Have a wonderful day and I’m always grateful for positive reviews if you find this lesson useful.
