How is education represented in these two texts?
Questions 2 and 3 will ask you to consider media issues that link in some way to the two texts in the opening question. Students may need to apply MEDIA THEORY and show an awareness of HOW AN AUDIENCE MAY USE a media text. Students need to also be aware of NARRATIVE THEORY.
For example, HOW might an audience gain pleasure from watching a documentary such as Citizen Four , Westworld, or Jonathan Pie?
Students must be able to apply media theory to these kind of questions.
HOW MIGHT THE AUDIENCE GAIN PLEASURE FROM A TEXT? Be aware of the theories that suggest that the audience is passive and asctive.
Question 2....How might an audience gain pleasure from a series such as Westworld?
Question 3 may ask students to consider a wider media issue. It could ba absolutely anything..form the influence of social media to the difficulties of regulating media..Question 3 will demand that you illustrate your underrstanding of current media issues and debates..
IS MEDIA HELPING TO DUMB-DOWN CULTURE?
IS SOCIAL MEDIA HAVING A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR WORLD?
SHOULD WE REGULATE THE INTERNET?
SECTION B...The Impact of New and Digital Media....
I have made it very clear that students will only be successful in Section B if they have indulged in some serious independent research. The whole aim of this section is for students to offer a wide range of media examples when confronting the focus of the question. Conclusions need to be evaluative and powerful. Conclusions need to leave the examiner feeling that you actually care about this subject.
Issues and debates....
REGULATION..When does regulation become censorship? How does regulation differ in different parts of the world?
GLOBALISATION and advantages/disadvantages of global interconnectivity...
AUDIENCE/PRODUCER DEBATE....
MEDIA AND DEMOCRACY...Has NDM created a more democratic world?

Note the comments by politicians such as Amber Rudd [now sacked] and Jeremy Hunt. Both blame social media for issues that could actually be caused by thier own policies.
These two links are also packed with relevant resources:
