The Writing Revolution

Activities adapted from The Writing Revolution for Philosophy & Ethics.

BECAUSE, BUT, SO

​Though a simple activity, the rigour comes in the content. This activity is ideal when coming across an exam question for the first time.

MULTI PARAGRAPH OUTLINE

​To help students structure their essays. It can also be used to help students deconstruct past and model essays.

SUPPORTING STATEMENTS

The activity requires students to evaluate the statement and decide whether it is an argument for or against (AO2). This is an easy way for students to be introduced to different scholars and the supporting statements can be amended with short quotes.
