No video this week

Hi all,

There will be no video this week in preparation for the lesson.  We have covered the syllabus so far as topics of C&D and will now, over the coming weeks, work intensively on research methods and perspectives (PLEASE NOTE THE NEW SUB-HEADING).  As discussed in class there will be much 'home learning' needed by you in order to be able to have covered everything comprehensively.  There will still be videos to watch in preparation for lessons, as well as videos to enable you to do work outside of the class.

For this weeks lesson: Monday group will be working through a worksheet on researching C&D in order to get our heads back into the methods mindset.  The Friday group will be required to access the work through here or our shared Google Drive folder.  More details to follow.

Suicide - Interpretivist perspective

Following from Durkheim and Positivist perspectives of suicide, here we have the Interpretivist approach. Don't forget, we have a mini-mock in class this week.

Sorry to my Monday group for the delay in getting this live - I have had a few technical issues.

Suicide - Durkheim and Positivist approach

Our penultimate topic based video focuses on our old friend Emile Durkheim and his theory on suicide.  From this spurned a whole positivist approach looking at the societal causes which lead to suicide.  Have a look over your notes on Durkheim from the start of the year to help reinforce your understanding of his ideologies.

Victimisation

The focus of this weeks short-ish video is victimisation, and how one becomes a 'victim' or not as the case may be.

We have approximately 12 teaching weeks until the the crime and deviance exam on the 18th June. We all need to make a concerted effort to work hard; that starts with me preparing the video and the lesson, and you watching it and bring your notes to the lesson.  12 weeks can be a long time if utilised well, or go really fast if putting things off or not doing the work.
