The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover: Learning Outcome 1: Understand the Process of Criminal Investigations AC1.3 Explain How Evidence is Processed The resources cover how evidence is processed. I got students to research x1 extra to show they have developed their own personal understanding of evidence and not simply churning out what is in the textbook. We looked at processing “dirt” and I referred them to the Soham Murders case. The booklet can be used in lesson and then the student can use it to equip them when writing up their controlled assessment. I tend to send the booklet power point to reprographics and they staple it into a booklet format for me :)

The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students.

The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover: Learning Outcome 1: Understand the Process of Criminal Investigations AC1.2: Assess the usefulness of investigative techniques in criminal investigations The resources start with a peer assessment of AC1.1 (this acts as a nice starter activity and gets students thinking about the structure of their controlled assessment). The resources then show students how to “assess” the usefulness of investigative techniques through a class activity. The class activity consists of three case studies where students are expected to put themselves in the situation of an investigator (I printed the cases studies out on laminate and then got students to sit in groups and make posters). The students must decide what techniques would be better suited to the case at hand. This really helped my students to tackle AC1.2 with more confidence and they came out of the lesson with a clearer idea on how to actually “assess”. I have also included an instruction booklet that students can use as guidance for their practice controlled assessment. I tend to send the booklet power point to reprographics and they staple it into a booklet format for me :). My students like this as they have a clear idea of how to set their work out. PLASE NOTE -that the Brian Keating DNA case study activity mentioned on the power point is FREE and is available to ALL to use on the Napier Press website.

The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover: Learning Outcome 2: Understand the Processes for Prosecution of Suspects AC 2.4: Assess Key Influences Affecting the Outcomes of Criminal Cases The resources include: A short lesson introducing different ideas on how a jury can be affected during their decision making. A short booklet for students is also included to help them set out their work for the controlled assessment. An independent activity sheet that helps to guide students on where to look for key influences. An article by the BBC. An acivity sheet on the R V Young case. Having spent many teacher-led lessons on this unit, I decided to switch up tactics and make the students do some research and work of their own. These lesson resources helped to give me a breather as well as set my students up on the right track. Giving them some ideas on case studies to use that are not included in the text book has really helped them to vary their work (rather than just regurgitating what is in there already). The link for the BBC article is on the power point and is FREE to access on-line but I have also included a copy on here for ease.

Included within these resources is a lesson, PP booklet students can fill either on -line (or you can print it out for them), key terms sheet and a case list.

The essay questions require them to evaluate (any area could come up) so I find this a useful reflection activity.

The attached resources includes a work booklet, a dilemma card activity and a power point presentation. The lesson can be used for either A Level Law students or BTEC Law Level 3 students. The booklet provided allows students to interact with the lesson. Print out the dilemma cards and get students to decide which category their offence/dilemma falls into. Some of the activity cards provide a basis for discussion points e.g. telling lies- “is it civil or criminal?” Students always enjoy this activity as it puts them in charge and gets them engaged with how law works in the “real world”. The lesson in full covers the following key areas: Key differences between civil and criminal law The courts in civil and criminal cases Burden/Standard of proof in civil and criminal cases 4)Outcomes/consequences of breaking the law in civil and criminal cases The lesson resources also include case studies which enable teachers to track the process of students. This lesson really does help to “show progress” and is a useful tool for lesson observations.

Please find attached resources for a Career Lesson.

I allowed the students to work in teams and gave each table a career poster to work with. Please also find attached a ‘help sheet’ for the written task, a mind map and a spelling activity related to careers- can’t beat a bit of SPAG!!

These resources are aimed at post-16 students (Level 3) who are either embarking on the CILEX course or who are thinking about what to study during a taster day. The resources included a “What is CILEX?” presentation as well as an “Introduction to law lesson”. Students can follow the lesson by filling in the attached booklet.The booklet contains activities and a case study which helps them to reflect on the learning they did during the lesson. Having something to take home after a taster day at college, I found, really helps students to decide if Law is a career they want to do.

The resources are aimed at A Level Law students studying Contract Law and cover material needed for “Consideration”. There are 3 lessons with activities, homework and lots of case law. I have also attached some revision notes on Consideration that students can take home, highlight and even use as help sheets for practice exam questions.

Unit 1 Changing Awareness of Crime Learning Outcome 1: Understand how crime reporting affects the public perception of criminality Assessment Criteria: AC1.5 Explain the impact of media representation on public perception of crime Please find attached Level 3 resources for the new specification of Criminology. These resources have been created for post-16 students who are studying the Applied Certificate and Diploma in Criminology. They are suitable for both WJEC and Eduqas exam boards. The lessons includes the following LO: Identify the key impact of media representations on the public perception of crime (using basic key words) [E-C] Explain the impact of media representation on the public perceptions of crime (key words and explaining it with full paragraphs) [C-B] Describe, clearly and with detail, the impact of a range of media representations on the public perception of crime (key words, full paragraphs and examples) [B-A] The resources attached include both a teacher power point presentation and a student activity booklet. This means that students can follow the lesson easily and the assessment criteria which they are completing is clear. I have designed these booklets so that students feel more guided when it comes to the formal controlled assessment. They can follow the subject material and extend their own learning through the key term homeworks and case studies. I have linked the lessons to the “Mr and Mrs S” Exam Board Assignment Brief but you can tailor the lessons to any brief that you have selected for your students. Remember that students must acknowledge the assignment brief but not make it all about the assignment brief. They must focus on meeting the assessment criteria set out by the exam board. Enjoy!

Please find attached key notes aimed at Level 3 Law students. My students find this particular area of law difficult to remember so I have created these notes to help them re-call the key points from both Acts of Parliament. I have also included some key evaluation points to help them answer essay questions.
