Two lessons that form part of a scheme of work on the Industrial Revolution, ending in the early 20th century (before the First World War).
Lesson one: a group news presentation involving the following learning objectives:
- describe what the Titanic was like as a ship
- explain why it is such a famous ship
- judge whether women and children really were rescued first
Students work in groups of three, read the information sheets and present a news report on the three key questions. This active lesson familiarises students with the key events of the Titanic, preparing them for the next lesson which is more writing-based.
Lesson two: an observation lesson involving the following learning outcomes:
- explain how several people’s actions led to the sinking of the Titanic
- explain how these people could defend themselves from blame
- assess which person or group of people was ultimately the most responsible for the sinking of the Titanic
Students analyse the five 'suspects', deciding who is responsible for the tragedy. They then write a persuasive report detailing their opinion. Ideal as an observation lesson, this lesson could easily be adapted for peer or self-assessment following the writing of the report if there was time.
