Media Paper 2 learner response

1) Type up your feedback in full (you do not need to write mark/grade if you do not wish to).

2) Read the mark scheme for this exam carefully, paying particular attention to the 'indicative content' for each question. Firstly, focus on the unseen question and identify two aspects of the poster that you could have written about in your answer.

3) Look at the indicative content for Q1 again and make a note of any theories or examples of media terminology you could have used in your answer.

4) Now focus on the TV 25-marker. Read this exemplar response for the TV question and pick out three arguments, phrases or theories from the essay that you could use in a future question on Capital and Deutschland 83.

5) Finally, identify three things you need to revise for Media Paper 2 before your next assessment or mock exam.
