DEADLINE

Reminder.

The deadline for completion of your foundation portfolio is today.

Preliminary marks will be based on completion by the deadline and those who fail to make best efforts to ensure that research, planning, production and evaluations are available for marking tomorrow Tuesday the 22nd of April will have their overall mark reduced for poor time management.

Remember that you should be aiming to achieve a high mark for your portfolio especially if you are not as confident in the written exam.

SEVERAL PORTFOLIOS ARE NOT COMPLETE AND SOME OF YOU HAVE VERY LITTLE EVIDENCE OF YOUR WORK SHOWING.

EVALUATION QUESTIONS AGAIN

The questions that must be addressed in the evaluation are: 


  1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? 
  2. How does your media product represent particular social groups? 
  3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why? 
  4. Who would be the audience for your media product? 
  5. How did you attract/address your audience? 
  6. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product? 
  7. Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
