As you all know, the trick with teaching this course is to marry a strong contextual knowledge with an understanding of the various factors that had a positive and a negative impact on change. Concepts of progress and regress need to be looked at over varying lengths of time. So, with the lessons. Many will be depth studies, especially those on Public Health, but there are also some which cover spans of hundreds of years. Because this topic has been taught in to the 14-16 age range for over 30 years now, there is no shortage of source material in the books. Much of it is very repetitive though. This site aims to bring a fresh approach and some fresh images too.
