Curriculum for Excellence

Experiences and Outcomes

This resource has been developed with the Second Level of a Curriculum of Excellence's experiences and outcomes in mind. This interactive resource can help you achieve the following E&O's whilst studying the Jacobite Rebellions as a topic:

E&O	Experience and Outcome Text	Remarks
Social Studies
SOC 2-01a	I can use primary and secondary sources selectively to research events in the past.	Just by using this resource you're using a secondary source to research events in the past! The links below can take you to some primary sources.
SOC 2-02a	I can interpret historical evidence from a range of periods to help to build a picture of Scotland's heritage and my sense of chronology.	By exploring this website's timeline a pupil can begin to build up a picture of events in chronological order.
SOC 2-03a	I can investigate a Scottish historical theme to discover how past events or the actions of individuals or groups have shaped Scottish society.	The Jacobite Rebellions (or Risings) are a major Scottish historical theme.
SOC 2-04a	I can compare and contrast a society in the past with my own and contribute to a discussion of the similarities and differences.	A suggested activity is to compare clan life with that of today.
SOC 2-06a	I can discuss why people and events from a particular time in the past were important, placing them within a historical sequence.	Pupils can investigate people and events using this resource and can place them within a historical sequence using the timeline.
SOC 2-14a	To extend my mental map and sense of place, I can interpret information from different types of maps and am beginning to locate key features within Scotland, UK, Europe or the wider world.	This resource provides access to lots of battlefield maps, an overview map of events and important places to help pupils interpret information from different maps.

As you are accessing this resource using ICT, the following E&O's also apply:

E&O	Experience and Outcome Text	Remarks
Technologies - ICT to Enhance Learning
TCH 2-03a	As I extend and enhance my knowledge of features of various types of software, including those which help find, organise, manage and access information, I can apply what I learn in different situations.
TCH 2-03b	Throughout all my learning, I can use search facilities of electronic sources to access and retrieve information, recognising the importance this has in my place of learning, at home and in the workplace.	Whilst this resource does not have a search function (yet) there are different ways to arrive at the same information so it develops a pupil's sense of discovery and encourages them to use alternative ways to find information.
TCH 2-04a	I explore and experiment with the features and functions of computer technology and I can use what I learn to support and enhance my learning in different contexts.	By accessing this resource through an iPad a pupil is exploring the features and functions of modern computer technology and can use the information to support their topic work.

Cross Curricular Links

The Jacobite Rebellions and this resource naturally lend themselves to the Social Studies and Technologies experiences and outcomes above, however, a Jacobean context can be used across other curriculum areas:

E&O	Experience and Outcome Text	Remarks
Numeracy and Mathematics
Various	Many of the numeracy experiences and outcomes can be tackled within an 18th Century context.	Download a Jacobite Maths Workbook (pdf, 1.07 MB)

E&O	Experience and Outcome Text	Remarks
Literacy and English
Listening and Talking
LIT 2-04a	As I listen or watch, I can identify and discuss the purpose, main ideas and supporting detail contained within the text, and use this information for different purposes.	Whilst watching the videos and listening to the sound clips on this app the pupils can take notes, form and answer questions and use their knowledge in other activities.
LIT 2-07a	I can show my understanding of what I listen to or watch by responding to literal, inferential, evaluative and other types of questions, and by asking different kinds of questions of my own.
LIT 2-08a	To help me develop an informed view, I can distinguish fact from opinion, and I am learning to recognise when my sources try to influence me and how useful these are.	Use the app to explore original maps, contemporary paintings and documents and begin to decide if they are bias.
Writing
LIT 2-20a	I enjoy creating texts of my choice and I regularly select subject, purpose, format and resources to suit the needs of my audience.	The writing opportunities within this context are vast. A tiny list of suggestions: Write a newspaper report about the Massacre of Glencoe Write a diary entry for Bonnie Prince Charlie whilst on the run Use images or music from the site as a stimulus to write a story, e.g. Battle of Culloden Massacre of Glencoe
LIT 2-24a	I consider the impact that layout and presentation will have and can combine lettering, graphics and other features to engage my reader.
LIT 2-28a	I can convey information, describe events, explain processes or combine ideas in different ways.
ENG 2-31a	Having explored the elements which writers use in different genres, I can use what I learn to create stories, poems and plays with an interesting and appropriate structure, interesting characters and/or settings which come to life.

E&O	Experience and Outcome Text	Remarks
Expressive Arts
Art & Design
EXA 2-02a	I have the opportunity to choose and explore an extended range of media and technologies to create images and objects, comparing and combining them for specific tasks.	There are so many art & design activities with a Jacobite theme: Create a redcoat mitre Make a cockade Make a targe Design your own tartan Investigate the backgrounds of paintings Explore portraits and landscape paintings from the 18th century
EXA 2-03a	I can create and present work that shows developing skill in using the visual elements and concepts.
EXA 2-05a	Inspired by a range of stimuli, I can express and communicate my ideas, thoughts and feelings through activities within art and design.
EXA 2-07a	I can respond to the work of artists and designers by discussing my thoughts and feelings. I can give and accept constructive comment on my own and others' work.
Dance
EXA 2-08a	I can explore and choose movements to create and present dance, developing my skills and techniques.	By learning some traditional Scottish dances (e.g., Gay Gordons, Dashing White Sergeant, Strip the Willow) and taking part in a Ceilidh these outcomes can be easily met.
EXA 2-10a	I have taken part in dance from a range of styles and cultures, demonstrating my awareness of the dance features.
Music
EXA 2-16a	I can sing and play music from a range of styles and cultures, showing skill and using performance directions, and/or musical notation.	Visit our music & song page for lots of great examples to play and sing. (Coming soon)
EXA 2-19a	I have listened to a range of music and can respond by discussing my thoughts and feelings. I can give and accept constructive comment on my own and others' work.
