Does anyone have the past questions for the Education module? I'm resitting this exam in May and have absoutely no idea what was on the last paper! (Or the one before that, to be honest) So if anyone could give me a list of past questions, I'd be very grateful!
Also, anyone else resitting/taking this module?

Hi I'm not sure what the most recent paper was about because I didn't do it! But I did the summer one last year and it was about
Roles of Education 12
Social Groups and Achievement 24
can't remember methods in context
and just methods was laboratory exps. problems I think. Like I say it's a bit sketchy!

Oh wow I wish we did Crime and Deviance from Sept-Jan I'd have preferred it now rather than in the summer. I've just finished Beliefs in Society and have just started Crime now. 
Is there a lot of content? Anything particular I should pay attention to? Thanks

The exam that just came up had Globalisation and Labelling Theory for the crime questions, Covert Observation in courts for the methods question and for the 33 marker - Functionism and New Right came up. I'd advise you to spend less time on them whilst revising as they won't come up in your exam.

There's a lot of content, yeah. Beliefs in Society is definitely a lot smaller!

If so then the exam we just had contained reasons for Ethnic minority religiosity, Secularisation and Sects, Cults and Denominations and the big 33 marker was on assessing Functionalist theory for understanding society today.

The questions for SCLY2 Jan 12 were along the lines of:
define meritocracy
3 reasons why ethnic minority groups may underperform
reasons for gender and subject choice
cultural factors affecting working class attainment
usefulness of official stats when investigating choice of secondary school
define hawthorne effect
2 sampling methods
2 disadvanatges of observation
strengths and weaknesses of interviews
In my opinion as a sociology tutor, this was a great paper with no tricky questions. I would revise PET and education policies for May 2012 if I were you!
