Representation Essay Plans

For 13C & 13D...

Please get the following essay plans posted up on your Med 5 blogs before the end of the week...
  • What is there to be said for or against stereotyping in the media? Answer with reference to specific examples. (Specimen Question, ’00 a)
  • Compare the media portrayal of two social groups. (June ’02 b)

  • It is argued that dominant media representations serve the interests of the powerful. Discuss with reference to one or more social group or place. . (June ’04 b)

Additionally, you should make sure that you've read all the new handouts we've given you on genre and representation, and that you've completed your summary/revision packs for both of these Med 4 topics.
