These are based on some very old resources I had. I have since tidied them up and made them more accessible. Nothing special, just some graphic organisers to help students formulate some arguments around New Media. One sheet is designed to be an intro where they do two spider diagrams identifying forms of old and new media. Like I said, nothing special.

This is a full lesson analysing contemporary feminism through Darts, specifically Fallon Sherrock at the Worlds in December 2019. YouTube links are in the notes. Tasks integrated in. Very niche, but very easy to teach. An interesting twist on feminism. EDIT: Added a PDF of the PPT as it was reported to not be working.

Just a simple graphic organiser designed to aid revision for the Crime and Deviance unit. Designed with IGCSE in mind, so not all boxes will end up getting filled up.

I took an ancient resource on here and updated it with activities and make it more student friendly. Designed with IGCSE in mind but advanced enough that can be used for A-Level. Two lessons worth, very discussion based. I have checked that all the videos are on YouTube as of 11/2019.

This lesson is designed to introduce the concept of secondary socialisation, predominantly through Education. There is some comparative analysis with primary socialisation with a bit on particularistic and universalistic standards. There is not that much detail here. As I say, it is introductory stuff designed to introduce concepts and get the students thinking and doing something.

Again, just some basic resources for Non-Participant and Participant Observation. No PPT but you can easily work through the tasks. Pretty self-explanatory. On Observation techniques the 2nd task has a table to complete it on the 2nd page.

Just some resources for AS Level Sociology on types of Experiments. Use in conjuction with the Reliable-Valid worksheet I uploaded. Simple, but effective. Enough to get some good discussions out of the class. No PPT. I never bothered with a PPT for this topic. I used videos of Milgram, Jane Elliot, Stamford Prison Experiment and Bandura’s Bobo Doll.

Print this off double sided and complete at the end of every method. Even the small ones like Semiology. I’ll stick this up for free so I can get a one star review and someone telling me it doesn’t contain any information.

This is just designed to help students structure a research project in Year 10. It’s designed to have students go over previous topics, then work to put some ideas together. Some of it will need adapting, the section on Chinese consent forms probably not relevant to a lot of people. Insert the PPT where the blank page is.

This should be enlarged to A3. Designed with IGCSE in mind but could also be used for AS level. Fine for all syllabus.

Pretty detailed matching task on Sociological concepts. Ideal for AS revision.

This is a basic task which should be completed near the start of any research method topic. It’s a pretty basic sort the cards out into the right box task, the actual table should be printed on A3 and the cards cut out on card. Once stuck on correctly, students should have this table on their desks whilst each individual method is being taught.

A very simple and quick task designed to help students sort through types of sources and data. Use near the start of any research methods topic. Useful for pre and post-16

A 4 page booklet on Public and Personal Documents, plus a little advantage and disadvantage sheet. Easy to follow. Takes one lesson, maybe longer.

This task is designed to be completed at the end of each method. It takes approx ten minutes, and students have to state how reliable, valid, representative and generalisable each method is on a sliding scale, then justify the answer. Could be cut down to just reliability and validity for GCSE.

A collection of resources to help teach Longitudinal Studies. This was inspired by a particularly tricky CIE AS Sociology question a few years ago. You will need access to the UP Series, which can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0l541FH_W0TPrwYHx7P7M-XhNzLN4uUb

This is a basic revision sheet for Research Methods. Mainly suitable for IGCSE students, especially weaker students, but could be used elsewhere if enlarged to A3.

Very basic task about choosing a research method. Create some introductory questions yourself and get the students to figure it out. Useful as introduction, revision, MIC etc.

This is a large mix and match task covering a lot of the key terms for any Research Methods course. Very useful for revision.

This is a collection of resources and activities to help get through Official Statistics. Should work for any curriculum and lead to some relatively interesting discussions. Change the postcode on the research task to areas you are familiar with.
