I am teaching OCR.

Anyone else teach the AS document paper on Nazi Germany or Liberals and Labour 1899-1918? For A2 I teach Civil Rights in America 1865-1980.

Interested in swapping resources and advice as I'm new to teaching A'level this year.

[chriswalker]

Very interested to see so many teaching Edexcel as am hoping to change to this (just started at a new school)

Interested in doing
Unit 1 : Poverty/Poor Law
Unit 2 : Railways
Unit 3 : Parliamentary Reform
(Builds nicely from GCSE)

Unit 4: ????
Unit 5 ?????
Unit 6 Nazi Germany

Does anyone do similar???
Also, any suggestions/ideas from experience about coursework/personal study OR exam for units 4/5. Easier for students? Why have so many of you gone for exam only route?

[MrsB]

I do parliamentary reform for unit 3 and 5.

I have done unit 5 as courseowrk and found the grades never came out that high as the boundaries are so high for the coursework

OCR
AS
Age of Peel
Parnell ( Documents)
Causes and Impact of World War 1

Sorry can't remeber all module numbers -I would be interested to hear from anyone who does the 'open book' examination instead of Personal Study.

[Carole Faithorn]

Just a quick post to bump this thread up and remind members of its existence.

Do add (or modify) what you teach at AS and A2. It helps a lot to find others doing the same/similar courses.
