YEAR 12 LESSON 45/46/47 [20th/24th/27th March 15]: Homework.

After an extended period of COURSEWORK related lessons, it was back to the EXAMINATION and a consideration of SECTION A. The class were asked to discuss the JANUARY 2013 Section A paper. The class discussion then moved towards a timed response. This task was the the focus of lessons 45/46. Homework was to complete COURSEWORK.

The final lesson of the term discussed THE CROSS-MEDIA STUDY.

HOMEWORK: Students need to decide which texts will provide the focus of the Cross-Media work. Students need to select a film documentary and a Channel Four 'hybrid' documentary. Students need to use SEARCHING FOR SUGAR MAN and THE SECRET MILLIONAIRE as the Cross-Media template. If students decide to use SFSM as the film documentary, they need to select a different hybrid-documentary. Remember...the focus is how is the media text is promoted across key media platforms. You could choose from:

• Gogglebox
• 24 Hours in A and E.
• Educating Yorkshire
• One Born Every Minute
• Born To Be Different

Explore the Channel Four site to identify a text that will allow you to produce a decent response. READ MY CROSS-MEDIA BOOKLET. The past exam questions can be found on the final page of the booklet. READ THESE QUESTIONS TO GAIN AN UNDERSTANDING OF THIS TASK.
