Philosophy Religious Language in 20th Century - OCR

(0)
24 slides on the theories on religious language in the 20th century. Includes keywords for the topic Covers verificationism Falsification Eschatological Verification Language Games Includes strengths and weaknesses for all arguments. I think it’s really detailed, and could last a long time.
OCR A-Level RS Philosophy and Ethics - Knowledge of God's Existence

OCR A-Level RS Philosophy and Ethics - Knowledge of God's Existence

(0)
8 slides on the section God’s Existence in the OCR A-Level spec. Covers Nat Law & Aquinas Covers Augustine & Barth and rationality being corrupted Covers Sensus Divinatus & Calvin References some other scholars. I’d say this would be good for a ‘recap lesson’ rather than a whole lesson. I got through a 1hour lesson with it, though.

Cambridge iGCSE Physics - Circuits

(0)
19 slides on the Cicuits component of Physics Cambridge iGCSE Knowledge check Circuit Diagrams Series and Parallel Circuits Potentiometers Thermistors LDR Variable Resistors Questions from textbook. There are some slides which are just a copy paste of a bit of the textbook but for the most part they are written slides with diagrams (because I didn’t want to rewrite everything out…!)

Challenging Feudalism: Topic 1 for AQA Power and the People GCSE

5 Resources
This bundle contains 5 lessons which each took 2 hours to complete. So realistically there is about 10 hours of content in here (which could be stretched out because these were designed to do one on one!). We have: Introductory lesson for Power and the People module A lesson on King John and his feud with the barons A lesson on the Magna Carta and its effect A lesson on Simon de Montfort and the ‘First Parliament’. A lesson on the Peasants Revolt

Kant Overview - OCR Philosophy - A Level

(0)
14 slides on Kantian Ethics. The last few slides contain essay and exam advice about a specific question to Kant. Covers his Formulations and Postulates, includes keywords. Has an activity to apply to ethical dilemmas (SE, BE, Euthanasia). I used this for a one hour one-one tuition session and didn’t get through everything so could probably stretch even further in a class of 30+.

ShannonW93ShannonW93

AQA Philosophy - The Tripartite View

(0)
16 slides on the Tripartite View Section of AQA Philosophy Includes what the spec says What is the Tripartite View Knowledge without Truth, Belief or Justification Gettier Cases Infalibilism No False Lemmas Virtue Epistemology And Criticisms of each Used for a 1 on 1 tutorial session and it lasted me around 2 hours. In a class of 30 you could probably stretch it if you include your own talking points etc.

AQA Philosophy - Reason as a Source of Knowledge

(0)
9 slides on the Epistemology topic of AQA including: 1 slide on the spec (helps students understand what and why they’re leaning) 1 slide of keywords (could use this as a defining exercise by covering it up etc) 3 slides on Descartes (waves of doubt / proof of external world) with criticisms 1 slide on Plato’s innatism 3 slides on Locke vs Leibniz (rationalism vs empiricism / tabula rasa) Used for a 1 on 1 session and it lasted 2 hours.
