After half-term, we will be moving on to a new topic and new CSPs so it's vital we don't fall behind at this point. There has been a lot of work for the newspapers unit but it is more like four CSPs rather than two due to the website aspect.
News story index
In today's lesson you need to create an index of all of your news stories so far from MailOnline and the i newspaper website. It is this selection of stories that will give you concrete examples to support your exam answers and essays on the newspaper industry (in addition to our close-textual analysis of the specific edition of each newspaper).
This homework was originally set on Wednesday 12 September which means you should have a minimum of 10 stories in your index this week (five from each website).
Remember, every story you post needs to be on a separate blogpost and the link in the index should go to YOUR blog post on that story, not the original article itself.
This process is an excellent start to your revision for the Media One exam in the summer and will also highlight if you've missed anything through absence or trips. Your index should include the following:
1) Newspapers: The decline in print media
2) Newspapers: The death of print media Factsheet
3) Newspapers: The future of journalism
4) Newspapers: News Values
5) Newspapers: Regulation MM article
6) Newspapers: Regulation essay
7) Newspapers: Daily Mail case study
For your index, the text should link to YOUR corresponding blogpost so you can access your work on each aspect of the case study quickly and easily. This also means you if you have missed anything you can catch up with the work and notes and won't underperform in assessments or exams due to gaps in your knowledge.
Your index should have the story number (starting with your first story back in September as #1), the headline and a link to your blog post for that story - guidance for the original task from September (with top-level examples from previous years) is here.
Remember, every story you post needs to be on a separate blogpost and the link in the index should go to YOUR blog post on that story, not the original article itself.
Newspapers index
You also need to update your separate index of ALL of your work for on Newspapers this half-term.
This process is an excellent start to your revision for the Media One exam in the summer and will also highlight if you've missed anything through absence or trips. Your index should include the following:
1) Newspapers: The decline in print media
2) Newspapers: The death of print media Factsheet
3) Newspapers: The future of journalism
4) Newspapers: News Values
5) Newspapers: Regulation MM article
6) Newspapers: Regulation essay
7) Newspapers: Daily Mail case study
For your index, the text should link to YOUR corresponding blogpost so you can access your work on each aspect of the case study quickly and easily. This also means you if you have missed anything you can catch up with the work and notes and won't underperform in assessments or exams due to gaps in your knowledge.
Newspapers: assessment revision
You will have an assessment on the Newspapers unit after half-term. Revise everything in the indexes above in order to prepare for this.
Index due date: anything you don't complete in the lesson needs to be posted by your first lesson after half-term.
