Learner Response Assessment

1) Type up your feedback in full (you don't need to write the mark and grade if you want to keep this confidential).

 WWW: Fairly clear writing, focused on the question.

 EBI: Use paragraphs, revise theory - especially genre theory for Q3, including quotes and examples.

 2) Read the mark scheme for this assessment carefully. Identify at least one potential point that you missed out on for each question in the assessment.

- Questions 1- Use Barthe and Propp and examples from theory.

- Question 2- Use media terminology and examples.

- Question 3- Not enough knowledge of theories or use of examples.
- Question 4- Go into the details of the poster and analyse specifics and use theories.

3) Read this exemplar response from one of the Y12s (one of the best, which is a strong B grade). Identify at least one potential point that you missed out on for each question in the assessment.

- Question 1 - Could be written in more detail about Barthe's theory.

- Question 2 - Could have used more comparisons and connotations.

- Question 3 - Consumers are the main focus for this question , however they could have considered and included other perspectives such as the producers.

- Question 4 - Simply explain a key theory and write about it in more detail with included examples from the source.

4) Did you get any media terminology or theory wrong in the assessment? Make a note of it here for future revision, including theories/terminology that you could have used but didn't.

I did not mix up any of the terminology or theory during my assessment, however in general it was lacking in the amount of terminology and theory actually included withing my answers. I think that mixing up my theories and terminology is not an issue at the moment, however actually knowing the terminology so that I am able to use it in the correct place would be a key thing for me to do. 


 5) Identify your strongest question. Why did you do better on this question?

 Question one was my strongest question and I believe that i did better in this question, because I allowed myself the most time for this question so I was able to write in detail about the question, where as for the other questions I must not have allowed myself as much time due to taking more time on the first question, therefore I must have been pressed for time for the other questions.

 6) Identify your weakest question. Why did you score lower on this particular task?

 My weakest question was question 3, which is the second to last question and as I have mentioned in the question above I believe that i had allowed myself too much time on the first few questions and hadn't been sticking by the guidelines of the timings so i was much more pressed to write this response in a short amount of time, therefore not being able to answer this question to the best of my ability.

 7) Re-write your weakest answer in full. Use the mark scheme to identify anticipated content you can add to your response and make sure your typed re-draft is a top-level answer.

Introduction to Representation

1) List the different people / groups represented in the trailer. Men Women Americans 2) For each group you identify, decide whether the representation is a dominant or alternative portrayal. Explain why you think this. Men-Dominant Men are seen to have a dominant portrayal, as they are seen to take advantage of the women in the film, fighting to save the woman and being aggressive. The main Character is seen to be strong, brave and seems to be better then all the other characters, effectively it shows that the main character is a man and has to save his daughter who is seen to be the "princess" who needs to be saved. Women-Dominant The stereotype for women is that they are vulnerable and require help to be saved. In the movie her father instructs her to do some things, which would help him to find her so that he is able to rescue her. The daughter is seen as weak and happened to find herself in exactly the situation which her father said she would be in and ha

Audeince Theory

Hypodermic needle model. 1) the hypodermic needle is a model of communication developed in the 20's after the researchers observed the effects of the WW1 propaganda which showed the audience fully accepted the technique portraying the medias power to the public. in a similar manner video games are also having a profound effect on those playing them on a regular basis which is what links this article to the hypodermic needle. professor bushman has shown in the research that when the results were shown the students who played the violent games may come to see the world as a more hostile and violent as it showed in their behaviour which is linked to how the characters of the video games would think n their surroundings. 2) the main reason for criticism for this front page is the head line used - a 15 year old, who is a video game addict and rarely leaves his bedroom suggests that the media is to blame, because the media influences the audience and this has a negative impact on t

Ideology - Final Tasks MM52

Page 34: The World Of Mockingjay: Ideology, Dystopia And Propaganda 1) Read the article and summarise it in one sentence. The article talks about how even in the film the media is so important in controlling peoples perceptive of them and this is why it is so important how the all the candidates are presented and how snow is shown as the superior. 2) What view of capitalist ideology is presented in the Hunger Games films? The capitalist ideology is presented in the Hunger game films as there is a clear show that there is many things wrong with capitalist ideology and may be hinting that there are elements of a capitalist society in the world right now. It shows the very large difference between the rich and the poor in the world and shows how some people struggle so much that they cannot afford food and general necessities and some people literally have money to throw away. I think that there is one iconic scene in the film where Katniss and Peeta are invited to a large party where
