13A January research task

Your task for January is to research your own case study example of the representation of young people in London. You will then present this to the class at the end of the month (that's just two weeks!) Remember, the mark scheme in the exam specifically rewards "detailed evidence of independent study". This can be across a variety of platforms and can be positive or negative, stereotypical or surprising. Examples could include:

• The representation of young people in London-based publications such as Time Out or the Evening Standard
• The representation of white, middle-class young people in shows such as Outnumbered or the Inbetweeners (as a contrast to Kidulthood-style examples)
• The representation of particular young Londoners, such as SBTV founder Jamal Edwards (someone who would give you a new and digital-media angle)

Produce a presentation to the class about your chosen example and also publish it to your MEST3 exam blog.

Deadline: Monday 28 January
