This presentation is beautifully illustrated and very engaging for the students. The content of this presentation aims to encourage the learner to challenge the validity of news through a series of written reflections. There are also many great debate opportunities from the stimulus materials included, with students being actively encouraged to share ideas. A great little powerpoint I have used many times with high levels of success!

This powerpoint presentation is beautifully illustrated and very engaging for the students. This presentation focuses on the students being able to use a variety of sentence structures for differing purposes through structured exercises. This of course helps in the development of their writing skills but also empowers them to identify these elements in the work of other authors. A critical exam skill.

Shakespeare’s classic tragedy forewarns of vanity and its fleeting values, explores the concept of aging and the decline of control, power and identity. In an age of social media, its vanity and its attached fleeting values, our individual lack of control and our ever-changing identities in the post-modern world, this text remains relevant and essential. I have taught this text many times in the last 20 years and I have used this specific resource (revised in 2020): to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material/homework assignment and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students. This dynamically presented PowerPoint lesson of 23 slides, includes: a starter activity, a glossary of terms, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, a theme tracker, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. This is a complete resource with no additional work required from the teacher. Enjoy!
