Designing video and audio resources on the history of political thought

This paper gives an overview of The Hobbes Project, a project based at the University of Huddersfield that produced a number of video and audio resources (VARs) and accompanying worksheets to support the teaching of the module entitled ‘Introduction to political philosophy’. In so doing, it will discuss the benefits of creating such VARs, comment on the format that these should take, include a discussion of academic decisions made about content, and offer tips on how to go about presenting VARs
