Ethics Through Christianity for OCR B Summary

Ethics Through Christianity for OCR B by Lorraine Abbott

This successful textbook for OCR Ethics has been re-editioned to support the 2009 OCR GCSE Religious Studies B specification. It can be used to deliver the short course for OCR GCSE RS B in ethics. It delivers the course through Christianity only, and therefore provides an in depth look at the issues in question. The book has a range of activities to engage the students; from key questions, discussion points, research tasks, extension activities to exam questions. Personal accounts of beliefs and experiences intersperse the main text to allow students to relate to the material they are reading. Each unit is summarised in the form of revision 'cards' to give students a 'snapshot look' at what they have just learned and need to learn for the exam. This book can be combined with Philosophy through Christianity for OCR B GCSE Religious Studies: Second Edition to provide support for the full course.
