In my lessons, we will openly discuss the history and origins of the subject. There will be A4 work sheets and in some cases powerpoint presentations. The aim of the lesson is to broaden minds and enable the student to gain their own insights into the subject, derived from their own research with a discussion and comparisson sessions.
My lessons are derived from my own experience of not being informed of what I wanted and needed to know because it wasn't in the main curriculum. This information is difficult to find and even harder to find in a complete package, even on the web. I have spent years collecting this 'extra curicular' information have and packaged it in an easily accessable format.
