Description

An entire course linked to Cambridge International Examination looking at conflict n the Middle East from 1948-1991.

The course is broken down into four sections to match the course outline from Cambridge International:

  1. How and why the state of Israel was created, 1898-1948

  2. The development of the Arab-Israeli conflict, 1948-79

  3. The impact of the Cold War on the Middle East

  4. Additional factors that led to the destabilization of the Middle East, 1979-91

Each section is sub-divided into manageable lessons that condense the content necessary to excel at this topic for students taking CIE A-level history.

Each section is followed by a multiple choice quiz that assesses students understanding and indicates areas that may need revising.

There is also an exam zone at the end of each section that instructs students and teachers on how to approach the essay question for this paper, using actual exam questions.

Students are advised to use the following structure for completing the course for maximum effectiveness:

  • Watch the video, pausing and taking notes based on both the presentation and the accompanying lecture.

  • In the margin of your notes, write key questions that you deem relevant to the lecture.

  • When you finish a section, take the multiple choice quiz.

  • Go back over any videos where you get questions wrong.

  • Watch the Exam Zone video and complete the exam task at the end.
