Welcome to the Sociology section. The internet has lots of sites with material relevant to Advanced Level Sociology, but it is not always easy to work out which ones they are. The links at Amazing Grades are directly relevant to Advanced Level courses, and should help you find your way around. If you find good sites that are useful for other students, please suggest them.
General Sites
This section includes the specifications for AQA and OCR, news sites and sites that authors have written to support textbooks. If you are doing coursework, then the Coursework section provides collections of articles, sites and papers as a starting point. For coursework, you should also look under the Sociology topic most relevant to your chosen Personal Study or Research Report.
Sociology Topics
The list of Sociology Topics is based on the specifications for AS and A2 courses, Scottish Highers and the IB. The topics are listed alphabetically. If you are looking for material on Stratification, start with the group in which you are interested, i.e. age, class, ethnicity or gender. Some sites here provide a particular point of view. This applies particularly to some of the sites included under Politics and Protest Movements.
Teacher Resources
If you are a teacher, I hope you will find all the material in the Sociology section useful. In the Teacher Resources section, I have included some rather different sites, such as datasets that you can customise for use with your classes, and organisations that support Sociology teachers. You will also find sites set up to support particular textbooks, with the resources provided for you rather than for students.
Enjoy yourself!
