Blog Feedback and Learner Response

WWW: Good to see you are highlighting media terminology - this is an excellent habit to get into early in the year. Your Mercedes advert was an interesting choice of text and your dominant/ oppositional reading of the RBK advert was thought-provoking too.

EBI: Generally, there's a lack of depth and detail that you will seriously need to work on this year. A Level is demanding and one paragraph for each advert analyses just doesn't give you enough room to explore the text fully. Use a new paragraph for each aspect you are analysing and you'll soon realise the detail required. Your media consumption also needs a rocket boost this year if you want to aim for the top grades!

LR: Reflect on your first month of AS Media. What is your strongest piece of work so far? What is your weakest? What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course?

The first month of AS Media has been very interesting and I have enjoyed all the lessons. I think my strongest piece of work so far is my RBK advert analysis as I thought I used many key media terminology and analysed it very well. My weakest may be my institution research as I hadn't researched the different channels in detail and didn't have enough depth. Over the rest of the course, I need to be analysing all my work in more detail and use as much media terminology as possible. I also need to increase my media consumption as it is very important for AS Media.
