A Level Sociology How to structure a methods in context

[@edwardday202]

I started year 12 doing essays achieving U's from not knowing how to properly write a sociology essay. since my teacher recommended your videos the grades have massively improved. You have given me hope and I am very grateful, thank you so much.

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

Massive thank you! :-)

Great video, i have a test tomorrow about this so it was really helpful.

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

You are very welcome! ;-) I am glad that this has been useful for you.

I've been scoring b5's a lot more consistently and it's thanks to this video. 👍

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

That is great news! Well done! :-)

[@flachi32]

Well done but what does b5 refer to? Is it AQA or another spec?

[@tays8782]

thank you for this. Didn't understand it at all at school

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

YOU are very welcome! ;-)

In the practical limitation paragraph like shown in the video, when should you do the practical strength? Should it be as another paragraph or within the same paragraph?

[@szdigi]

Thank you sm, my teacher wouldn't teach us a structure so this was really helpful

[@siennaadams6835]

Should you do a criticism in your paragraph?? And by separating the practical, ethical and theoretical paragraphs into 3 separate paragraphs can you still get into a high band that way?

Me watching this in the morning of my exam 😂

Guys this video helped as like last minute recap of everything, the twenty marker was so nice !!

[@nabeehanoor1660]

Can you make a video explaning what AO are for the different questions?

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

That is a great idea! Thanks Kate

[@tanishaahmed8601]

Thanks sooo much for this! So needed this!!

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

I am glad that you have found this useful! :-)

[@millieevans204]

is dishonesty/social desirability a practical issue?

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

Both of these impact the validity, that is a theoretical issue. Likewise so does the Hawthorne effect.

[@arjun_makhecha]

Do i need to talk about sociologists in this??

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

No not in a method in context question.

Hi , I’m practicing questions however I’m stuck on some points for my 20 marker . Could you please give me some points : evaluate strengths and weaknesses of written questionnaires to investigate the role of parents in children’s achievment in school. Because it’s very specific on what type of questionnaires , I’m kind of stuck so I would appreciate some points please

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

What part are you stuck on Jessica? :-)

[@jessicakyei6918]

@@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY I just need practical , ethical and theoretical advantages and disadvantages . I’ve been trying to do it but I don’t get it due to the fact we have to link it to parents . So could you please give me some points and tell me if it’s practical theoretical or ethical so I can develop iyn

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

@@jessicakyei6918 Start with Practically, a questionnaire is quick and easy to complete. You can hand them out in class and the pupils can take them home for their parents to fill it in. BUT some parents may not have literacy skills to understand the writing on the questionnaire, or not have english as a first language, so they may be unable to fill in a writtten questionnaire.

[@TheTEACHERSOCIOLOGY]

@@jessicakyei6918 If you are thinking ethically - you have consent prior to filling in the questionnaire. BUT regarding parents they may not give consent. THink WHY they would not give consent? Are they the type of parents who do help their children at school? IF they don't ... they may not want to fill in the questionnaire.
