A few weeks ago I did an activity with my A-level students that they really seemed to enjoy. I have them for a triple period first thing on a Monday and keeping them awake if this is going to be theory is no easy task. SO, I asked them to go back to the common room and ask five fellow students about their feelings towards where high street fashion comes from, do they really care? and what would make them buy ethical fashion etc etc.
I then show them this video clip and we have a class discussion about their own feelings and the findings of their straw poll.

The other videos on the u-tube channel are also good and not too mawkish so I show them and we discuss, I get them all to make notes from this website too

And of course finish with an exam question related to the whole topic.
