Lesson idea. A lesson planning proforma including learning objectives, assessment strategies, learning outcomes and a detailed plan.

Teaching approach. This lesson outline stimulates A-level students to engage in discussion^(ta), develop their reasoning^(ta) skills and increase their awareness of the bioethical^(topic) issues involved in human reproduction.

Background texts and open-ended questioning^(ta) about human reproduction, contraception and IVF are provided as the stimulus. Small group discussion about these topics, writing on post-it notes, and reading case studies aim to get students reasoning^(ta) to justify their opinions, and to compare and evaluate competing views. Finally, whole class^(ta) discussion synthesises the emerging ideas and encourages students to consider changing their positions or adding additional issues to a recording table.
