AQA Sociology Blockbusters CD-ROM

Subject: Sociology
Level: Secondary
Age Group: 16 - 18
Order Number: 19021

The material 'Sociology Blockbusters' has been compiled from a wide range of subject specific sources and was designed as a revision tool for the Crime and Deviance Synoptic unit. It is a brilliant resource for team building in the classroom and differentiated learning. It can also be used to revise the Family, Education and Methods modules. It is a fun way of revising and a fun way of delivering student centred learning. It can also be used as a plenary or starter resource. Most importantly it allows students to measure their own learning and see improvement over a set time frame.

It aims to provide accessibility to a range of key issues in Sociology and can be differentiated for different year groups. The questions are drawn from A-level text books and key texts and are an exhaustive account of key words, concepts and thinkers from the current syllabuses. The content is also set in historical context, which is essential for a good understanding at A2 level. It can be used over and over again as there are around 450 questions on a range of issues. All of the questions in the teachers pack come with the answers. The resources can be used either with a interactive board as there is a PowerPoint game board supplied that facilitates the use of ICT in the classroom or you can draw out a grid on a whiteboard. Students who can answer all the questions by the end of the unit have scored better on the AQA exams and are able to approach the exams with confidence.
