GCSE RE Wiki

GCSE RE students at SHoM are attempting to create a Wiki of model answers for Unit 3 and Unit 10 from their EdExcel syllabus.

Students can login at school or from home and contribute or improve answers.

Visit http://gcsere.wikia.com to see their work or help them improve!

It's very simple:

1) Choose a topic from the homepage
2) On the topic page, click the blue 'Edit' button.
3) Add an answer, improve an answer, correct an answer - or even add a futher question!
4) Once you have edited the page, simply click 'Publish' on the far right hand side.

<Click here to download instructions for the Wiki plus all the question in a Word doc>

<Click here to just download instructions for the Wiki>

A wiki is a website which allows its users to add, modify, or delete its content. Most are created collaboratively, with people working together as a team. The most famous Wiki is of course, Wikipedia.

Revision: Natural Law Theory

A-Level student 'Komilla' has decided to revise by writing blog posts and making videos. Here she explains Natural Law Theory in 6 minutes:

There are lots of other articles that may be useful at the "AS with Komilla" blog: http://kdkchadha.blogspot.co.uk/
