• Prezi is a much better tool for this than otehr presentation software.

    Go to prezi and type in 'A2 Media evaluation'. Have a look at some !




    MARK SCHEME STUFF:


    Marking Criteria for Evaluation Each candidate will evaluate and reflect on the creative process and their experience of it. Candidates will evaluate their work digitally. The format of the evaluation has some flexibility and its form can be negotiated between teacher and student: it may take place with individual candidates or with the production group as a whole, or each individual candidate or production group may make a formal or informal presentation to the whole class. The teacher must allocate a mark according to the contribution/level of understanding demonstrated by the individual candidate. Each candidate should give a clear indication of their role in any group evaluation and the presentation must be evidenced by the Centre.

    Level 4 16–20 marks

  • Please take note of these deadlines as they will NOT be changed as there is so little time left from now until the coursework and exam needs to be completed.

  • So I have just been reading the 'occupy' movement's website and it appears they are having a 'occupy democracy protest for several days in May at Westminster square.

    What better way to see what real democracy looks like close up and what better way to prepare for your ew media essays? 

    If I get 5 or more positive votes left as comments on this post I will organise us a nice trip out of the classroom and we can go to a real life democratic movement and protest! 

    Viva la revolution, vamos comprades!
