Blog feedback and LR

 WWW: It’s great that your blog is set up and you’ve posted three pieces of work including a creative fruit bowl. The challenge now is to make sure we are publishing work on time and fully complete.

EBI: Currently, some of your work is missing or unifinished – e.g. the first 10 questions work is missing the last two answers. I’m sure some of this is in draft form so simply needs checking and publishing. The first priority is to make sure the following is completed and posted to your blog:

10 questions blog task: https://mediamacguffingcseyear1.blogspot.com/2022/09/welcome-to-gcse-media.html

Denotation and connotation: https://mediamacguffingcseyear1.blogspot.com/2022/09/denotation-and-connotation.html

Once you have this work completed, the most important thing is to start developing the depth and detail of your work. Your film poster analysis cannot have taken you more than 5 minutes – and that isn’t good enough at GCSE. In previous years, that may have counted as completing the homework but when you are taking GCSEs and A Levels it’s just setting yourself up for a low grade at the end of the course. Instead, put the extra time in and write detailed analysis for each concept or question. You’ve also misunderstood representation here but don’t worry – we’ll cover that later in the course.

LR: Post the missing/incomplete pieces of work.

Then, create a new blogpost on your Media blog called ‘Blog feedback and Learner Response’. Copy and paste this WWW/EBI feedback into your blogpost then complete the LR tasks/questions below.

Reflect on your first month of Media. What do you feel is your strongest piece of work so far? What is your weakest? What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course?



LR: Post the missing/incomplete pieces of work.

dark material analysis

Representations His Dark Materials -  Subverting stereotypes  Men and women Many characters in this episode of His Dark Materials subvert stereotypes. Lyra is a strong, independent female character who doesn't need or want help from anyone on her dangerous quest across different worlds. She can't cook, isn't bothered by her appearance and takes what she wants. Mrs Coulter also subverts female stereotypes as a cold hearted villain. She is actually Lyra's mother but displays none of the maternal stereotypes the media usually presents as typically female. Meanwhile, Will subverts male or masculine stereotypes. He is kind, welcoming and wants to help Lyra. He cooks her food and makes up beds for them to sleep in. Not all characters subvert stereotypes though - Lee Scoresby is in many ways a classic masculine man on a mission to help Lyra.   Race, ethnicity and social class  The actors in His Dark Materials are from a range of ethnic and social class backgrounds and the char
