Introduction to NDM: reading and blog task

For Year 12s...
Your first task for new/digital media is to read some recent Media Magazine articles and consider the impact these changes have had on your life.

Go to our Media Magazine archive and open up MM56 - April 2016. You need to read the following articles:

Page 10: Living and learning in a digital age.
Page 46: Periscope and the implications of live streaming.
Page 53: A2 A* exam essay on Spotify.

Note: You'll need to set up your Year 13 MEST3 and MEST4 blogs before you can complete the blog aspects to this task.

You then need to complete the following tasks on your new MEST3 exam blog:

1) Read the first two articles. Write one paragraph on each summing up the key aspects.
2) Now read the A2 A* essay. Why do you think it was so successful? 
3) Finally, answer this question in a well developed paragraph on your blog: How has digital media changed your life in the last 5 years (for positive or negative)?

Finish this for homework - due Friday.
