Snow day - Year 13 Media work

It's been a remarkable week of weather - hopefully you've been following the media coverage!

Fortunately, there is plenty of media work for you to be getting on with at home. If you're not sure what needs doing, this should help.

Year 13 coursework
Make sure you've submitted your second draft of the critical investigation to your teacher - all improvements made, fully referenced and submitted both on paper and on the blog.

Then, make sure you have completed the research and planning tasks for the linked production. It's less than four weeks until Easter so we need to be filming and editing in the next 10-14 days.


Year 13 exam work
You should have completed or be working on a range of blog tasks for feminism including the Everyday Sexism TEDx talk and the Media Magazine article on the fourth wave of feminism and the most recent work on feminist and gender theorists such as McRobbie, Butler and Gauntlett.

There's now an additional piece of work to conclude feminism - a factsheet on applying feminism with a range of excellent theories and examples. You won't have any lesson time for this due to the snow days but it shouldn't take a huge amount of time as homework.

Don't forget the two weekly NDM stories are continuing too - we'll be back on new/digital media just before Easter so it's important to stay up-to-date with the latest news in this area.

Good luck with this work and enjoy the snow!
