Towards Scottish Independence? Understanding the Referendum

These videos were created for our short online course, Towards Scottish Independence? Understanding the Referendum. This course ran in 2014 on FutureLearn. While the full content of the course is no longer available, we have made the videos from the course free and open so you can work through the resources in your own time.

Beginning three weeks before voting day, the videos in this playlist look at the Scottish Independence debate as it happened, so that learners can engage critically and constructively with the arguments of both sides and other learners, and benefit from the input of leading academics. The course explored six key questions:
  • Why is Scotland having a referendum? 
  • What does ‘Yes’ mean? 
  • What does ‘No’ mean? 
  • What do Scots think? 
  • The Day After. What Next?
From the University of Edinburgh with Professors Charlie Jeffery, Dr Alan Convery and Professor Nicola McEwen.
