This structure is for AQA only or OCR too as my teacher mentions that A03 should be written completely in an another paragraph
Hi this is for AQA :-)
this question might be the most confusing for me, do the paragraphs on limitations and weaknesses depend on the research method and if so how do i know what to talk about in terms of (theoretical, ethical, practical) or can i just mix and match but definitely relate it to education? i don’t know this make sense sorry
It makes perfect sense. As long as you have some practical ethical and theoretical strengths or weaknesses , gives you mark for the method. THEN attempt as much as possible to link to the education context given in the question. That will give you structure.
Hi Kate, thanks for video. My daughter is abt to start sociology a level in sept. Any tips shared would be helpful 🙌🏽
Hopefully she will love it. I’m going to put some things together about the basics about the exam paper and assessment objectives this week. So keep your eye out for those :-)
So when it says applying material, all you really need to do is quote the material box?
You use it to apply the relevant knowledge to it to show that you understand it. So you need to go beyond the item, apply theory, examples etc.
Very insightful video, could one be done on topics one and two of crime an deviance????
Check out tiktok. I’ll be putting some things together for students to revise over summer
I don't understand how the "comment" and the "evaluate" bit in the structure is different
Analysis is to break the explanation down further link further concepts , or make comparisonsn or similarities. Evaluates is a criticisms
exam in an hour teehee edit: went well :))
i stepped on an apple, i slipped from an apple, i fell because of an apple down ala apple
Hi, I wanted to ask for 10 markers with an item, is it alright if I only analysed and went in depth of my original point? I didn’t evaluate and I am worried that I’ll be capped at 3 marks. Thank you very much, I will be using this channel for paper 3!
The mark scheme states for the top band ‘analysis and / or evaluation’ so you can reach top band with either. Also check out tiktok for more recent stuff
great video
Hey Miss 😊 could you please post the answers of the grid on your CZcams channel aswell as I do not have Tiktok 😅
Hi miss ! could you make a video on exam technique for beliefs and society and how to talk about religious fundamentalism in my essays as it is the only topic I find really confusing
could you please do a video on recent crime statistics? I find your videos really useful btw x
Will try and put something together. What you would find useful is tutor2u Stat packs. They’re free…
@@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGYHi, please could you explain this for me. I have just sat my Paper 3 exam and the 30 marker was to “evaluate contributions of realist theories to crime”. I know you are supposed to write 6 main body paragraphs but I only wrote 4 because I could only find 4 hooks in the Item I wrote a paragraph each about right realist theories of crime; left realist theories of crimes; right realist methods to solve crime; and left realist methods to solve crime. I evaluated them all. However, my paragraphs were very long because I technically merged two paragraphs into one. For instance, for right realist theories of crime, I talked about biological differences and rational choice theory in one paragraph when I could have written two separate paragraphs. However, I still evaluated them both. So, will this affect me and if my content and analysis/evaluation are good could I hit the top band requirement or would 4 paragraphs limit me?
Good luck everyone let’s hope it’s a nice 30 marker
If I don’t mention any examples of experiments, will that reduce my marks?
Yh long day for me
real
Is this a 30/30 mark answer
29/30
Is this a 30/30 answer
Thank you! Exam tomorrow 😅
Good luck!!🤞
good luck for monday guys!!
I did terribly on the last question; what the hell were they even asking?
Hi, what would you say for sociology being value free
Positivist scientific methods
Do u need to explicitly say ‘as stated in the item’ because this student did not do that but still managed to get full marks?
I think its better to mention 'as stated in the item' or 'the item connotes that' just to be safe, better safe than sorry.
Does it matter if you switch between internal/external e.g. your first paragraph starts with an internal factor but then your second paragraph starts with an external factor because my teacher always marks me down when I do this bcs she says i'm switching my AO1s and AO3s
Depends on the question. This one was sociological explanations (that could be either internal or external) BUT if the question was external factors … that would be your ao1 and the internal would be used as ao3
Why dont you answer exam questions step by step marking it make no sense i could do that on a past paper if i wanted you need to take tips from mr everthing english
Thank you for the comment, I am always looking for ways to improve. Check out some of my videos about improving a paragraph .. that may be what you are looking for.
@@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGYI think you’re a great teacher really helping me for my exam tomorrow!
do you have to use the item in every paragraph and should you always structure it with practical, ethical and theoretical issues or advantages
Praying for whatever luck she had on that day
Such a great teacher
Thank you so much ☺️
This is a great video, thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, I was just wondering about juxtaposition in these answers. I've been told to do 2 paragraphs agreeing with the statement (if it's that type of questions) and 2 paragraphs disagreeing with the statement. However, my tutor has told me not to do that and only to evaluate in the bottom part of a paragraph. I'm really confused!
Yes, exactly. You want to evaluate as you go along , if you do a separate para you won’t score as high :-) good luck
miss could you please tell me if this sounds ok/is correct? Outline and explain two ways society can be seen to have entered a post-modern age One way in which society can be seen to have moved into a postmodern age is through the process of globalisation causing mass change in society, particularly in the education and economy sectors. Globalisation is the growing interconnectedness of nations into a global village. This has meant that parts of society such as schools are now being compared on a global league table through PISA rankings, rather than just in the national leagues. Furthermore, globalisation has meant that we have moved from a fordist economy that was rife with manufacturing industries to a Post-Fordist economy that requires more specialist skills, such as IT skills, for individuals to compete in a global market. This demonstrates how the process of globalisation has led to massive changes in different parts of society, showing how we have entered a postmodern age. Another way in which society can be seen to have moved into a postmodern age is through the fact that there has been an increase in choice/diversity and a decline in metanarratives. Post-modernists suggest that the meta-narratives of structural theories such as Marxism and Functionalism are no longer relevant, as individuals now have more choice and free will over their lives in the modern era. This can be seen in the greater diversity of family life-s such as an increase in divorce rates, same-sex couples, and a fluidity in gender identities. Postmodernists Beck and Giddens argue that the decline in the nuclear family is due to the rise of individualisation- which has meant that people are more likely to prioritise their own happiness and fulfilment over set social standards. This has meant that the range of family types in a post-modern era is broad and diverse, people have the opportunity to cohabit or even, according to ‘personal life perspective theorists’, construct their own familial units from friends, colleagues and pets. This greater diversity would act as a sign that society has moved into a post-modern era.
Can you please do the value free and sociology as a science
Hi I think I have a science 10 mark video already …. Let me look :-)
thank you I learnt more in one video than 1 year of school
Pls.send me a 20 questions paper with answers of Social Psychology.
Hi , I teach a sociology :-)
Ok I will 🌹🎉🌹
these videos have genuinely been helping me so much over the past few weeks, thank you so much for everything you do!
You are very welcome xx
4:08 are you not marked down for going off topic or is it just not given any marks?
how many marks did they get in total
18/20 marks
do you think they could ask a MIC question on lab experiments? how would answering it differ from a question on field experiments, i get a bit confused between the two😂
Great question. method in context is in the context of education, I don’t think you could conduct research into education in a lab. So only a field experiment I would have thought …
hi, would you be able to mark any practice questions for me please?? im a private student who has their exams next month! i can pay for tutoring if need be, thank you
Send me a message theteachersociology@gmail.com I don’t really do tutoring but I’ll try and help if I can. :-)
Thank you so much this was extremely useful! Could you also make a video on how to develop material/ interpret it and link it back to the question (without it sounding too basic and repetitive using all the time the question words) for A02. It would be super super helpful
That sounds like a good video. Let me put something together as I have been working on this with my students.
miss do you think the grade boundaries will be higher this year
The grade boundaries are decided after the exams are sat so I have no idea.
@@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY ah, that gives me the chills
Hi I was wondering if you do a more in depth explanation on how to carry out the interrelationship/comparison aspect of 30 markers as I haven’t been able to achieve above 19/30.
Hi Claire, I have a video on analysing in education (links between internal / external . Let me find the link :-)
czcams.com/video/Nw_OSqZiAII/video.htmlsi=Dz3XM-wA6IxqpkQE please check this. This will help you ;-)
lol I can hear ur kids in the background
Most likely 🤣 …
thx
Thank you, for this. I finally managed to get a C from the crime and deviance course but a B in the Beliefs in Society and Families and Households. I want to get a b on both. I want to get 3 B's for both of my subjects because the the Uni I am going to requires those grades and I believe I will attain them.
How do you plan so many exam questions when there are only a handful of past papers?
Look at what has not been asked or similar questions from different angles. Check out my latest tiktok 👍👌
Is there are any chance you could explain any trends and patterns you’ve found in a video i can’t seem to find any-Thanks!
