This resource can be used to introduce the Medicine Through Time GCSE course. It takes four images through time and encourages students to gain a chronological understanding of the key periods through deconstructing the carefully chosen 4 images. This worked extremely well with my students who were able to use the images to identify continuity and change between periods and make judgements on key questions such as: 1. How was illness explained? 2. How did people try to treat illness? 3. How were the sick cared for? 4. Who cared for the sick? Students need an A3 copy of the word document table and an A4 copy of the picture sheet - ideally in colour. This work can be completed individually or in pairs. I adapted this resource for current year 11 students as a group based revision task - (really well received by both students and other colleagues). I will publish this also.

This resource can be used by students as an independent revision programme or used by teachers to deliver revision sessions in the weeks leading up to the Medicine exam. Pupils will gain factual knowledge of the course as well as a better understanding of the exam technique needed for each question type. Furthermore, each unit covers a good range of past exam questions together with knowledge organisers and writing frames (to support the less able). The resource provides: a) A summary of the key facts/knowledge you need for the Medicine Exam. It gives pupils a fresh start to re-learn the course, without the need to re-read class notes! Key knowledge has been organised in periods of history with common sub headings signposting the main themes that run throughout the course. KEY PERIODS: Roman Medicine Medieval Medicine Renaissance Medicine 1750 - 1900 1900 onwards The KEY THEMES within each period include: How the cause of illness was explained How illness was prevented How illness was treated Care of the Sick Training of Doctors Public Health b) My students use this resource initially to make high quality revision notes such as flash cards, mind maps, bullet point lists. c) Sample exam questions are also provided at the end of each period/section and students can choose to answer at least one exam question in full under timed conditions. d) Furthermore, each exam question is accompanied with a suggested writing frame and/or a graphic organiser, making the resource fully differentiated . My D/C/B students really benefited from this (as did some of my A grade target students who need to adopt a less narrative and more analytical approach to exam technique).

Jeremy Paxman: Empire - Ep.2 - Making Ourselves at Home Worksheet to support the BBC Documentary. Jeremy Paxman traces the story of the greatest empire the world has ever known: the British Empire. He continues his personal account of Britain’s empire by looking at how traders, conquerors and settlers spread the British way of doing things around the world - in particular how they created a very British idea of home. He begins in India, where early traders wore Indian costume and took Indian wives. Their descendants still cherish their mixed heritage. Victorian values put a stop to that as inter racial mixing became taboo. This worksheet only support the first part of the documentary, covering the British role in India.

The Birth of Empire - The East India Company Episode 2 Worksheet to support the BBC Documentary presented by Dan Snow. Written to support the Edexcel A level: Gaining and Losing an Empire -1763-1914 By 1800 the East India Company had grown from a tiny band of merchants into a colossal trading empire. But scandal and corruption in the 18th century had led to a curtailment of its powers by the British government. The state now controlled the company’s affairs in India and, throughout the 19th century, would chip away at its remaining powers and trading privileges. The company was transformed from a trading enterprise into the rulers of India, and governed vast swathes of the subcontinent on behalf of the British Crown. Its territory expanded enormously and an empire was born. As the company traded opium to a reluctant Chinese Empire, in India a dangerous chasm opened up between the British rulers and the Indian people. Alienated and disaffected, significant numbers of the company’s massive army of Indian soldiers finally revolted and the Company’s handling of the mutiny was its final undoing. In 1858 British India passed into Queen Victoria’s hands and the Raj was born.
