13D1 Cover Work Tues 23rd March

Look at a sample paper for MEST 3, Section A using the following link

http://store.aqa.org.uk/qual/gce/pdf/AQA-MEST3-W-SQP-07.PDF

Now find two (contemporary) texts that deal with issues of representation and new media technologies. These could be any combintion of print texts (advertisements, film posters, newspaper stories, magazine articles), website (screen grabs from a website) or moving image (trailer, advertisement, opening sequence, news report etc).

You should try to find texts different to those of your other class members.

Firstly identify the media issues and debates that the two texts raise, (theories, wider contextual issues etc).

Using the framwork of the exemplar exam questions create your own set of questions for your two texts.

You will be presenting these texts in next week's lesson and you will take on the role of 'teacher' in leading the discussions about the issues and debates.
