Teaching History or Politics?

Gandhi's concept of non-violent resistance and the role of civil disobedience were the corner-stones of his motive and methods to achieve Indian independence. Ask students to make a list of the actions taken by Gandhi and place them in an order of significance and impact. It might be used as the stimulus for a debate on the value and impact of peaceful protest in contemporary society.

Pupils could also discuss how 'The Empire' affected India and it's people. How few benefits such as the railway system impacted on hundreds of thousands of people, including enslavement.

A study of India's independence movement might be followed up by this to provide an overview of issues, context and key characters. As an extension, pupils might use this as part of a comparative investigation into key 20th century figures and political leaders

This clip will be relevant for teaching History, Politics and Religion at KS3, KS4 and GCSE. This topic appears in AQA, OCR, EDEXCEL, and WJEC in England and Wales.
