Eight topics, one summit. The divergent views set side by side, the key ideas connected, and the (d) evaluated the Level-4 way, everything for the top of the mark scheme, in one place.
Can religion bring peace to a world at war, and when, if ever, is a war just?
Every (d) in this unit turns on the divergent views: set side by side, exactly as the examiner wants. Pick a topic, then tap a position to see what it claims. The Grade 9 move and the 7-minute discussion question travel with each topic.
Tap a circle, or use Tab and Enter, to explore each position.
Grade 9 is not more content: it is three habits applied to every topic. Spot them and every (d) in this unit opens the same way.
Never one view at a time. Set them against each other: where they agree, and the exact point they part. That comparison IS the analysis.
Chain each point (claim → because → this means → therefore), steelman the other side, weigh BOTH arguments, a strength AND a limit, then justify the conclusion.
A correctly named source beats a vague paraphrase. One learned line from each source, placed precisely, is worth more than a paragraph of drift.
Each panel is a topic’s key idea: the connective explanation that links the key words into one argument. Learn the chain, not the list.
Everything for the unit, in one place: each topic’s lesson, booklet pages and podcast episode, plus the unit-wide booklet editions, schemes of work and the guide.
LINKS list near the bottom, and paste each SharePoint share link once. Buttons with no link show as "Link not set".
Use the resources in this order: the same loop as the lessons, so revision feels like coming home.
Five recall questions from memory, self-scored /5. Then the come-back tracker: the same five at +1 week and +1 month.
One six-minute podcast per topic. Capture the six mind-map branches as it plays. The episode does the exposition so you can do the thinking.
Four pages per topic: the key idea, two source quotes, the divergent views side by side, and the full (d). The Key Idea edition adds the 7-minute discussion.
Chain · steelman · weigh both (strength AND limit) · justify. Check yourself against the Level 3-vs-Level 4 models on lessons 3 and 6.
A full review of Peace and Conflict: all eight topics as one argument. Best watched before you revise, then again to check recall.
Teacher: paste the YouTube link in the VIDEO_URL line near the bottom of this file. The player then appears here automatically.
Flip a card to check yourself. Switch between key terms (term → meaning) and divergent views (view → what it claims), and filter by topic.
