Welcome back
If you were part of Head Start Day then you will have submitted some work and will already have created a blog and begun your journey into the world of AS Media Studies.
If you are new then this will be an exciting week packed with things for your to do.
The first of these things is make a blog.
We will be communicating using blogs and our new VLE Frog throughout the year and it is essential that you get to grips with the way these online tools work and how they will help you succeed.
The first thing to learn is that you need to check my blog and frog a few times a week and you should also update your own blog at least once a week with HW, CW and general reflections on the world of Media.
Here you will find the lessons and tasks, links to sites and information about the course, Frog will replicate some of these things but also give you some other support and it is more interactive so will be useful in different ways.
More to follow...

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