YEAR 12 LESSON FOURTEEN [24th Oct 13]: Homework.

The aim of this session was to discuss the material that students are expected to produce during the half-term break. Students were presented with four media texts and asked to consider four questions. These four questions need to be completed for homework and handed to me before the first session in November.

HOMEWORK: These are the questions and resources. The aim of this critical writing task is to encourage students to use appropriate media language when constructing an analysis and support their media criticism with specific textual reference. Students need to select the key moments from the text that will allow them to construct the most convincing argument.
I expect ALL students to place a clear AIM at the beginning of their written work. This aim needs to be  the advice for improvement that I have placed on your last piece of written work. Show me that you are reading my marking!!
THE TASK AND QUESTIONS:

1. How are media forms used to shape enigma codes in this trailer?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_UxLEqd074
2. How is the teenage experience of the central character represented in this trailer? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0SKf0K3bxg
