YEAR 9: LESSON 5, BASELINE ASSESSMENT OF PRINT PLATFORMS

LESSON 5, BASELINE ASSESSMENT OF PRINT PLATFORMS: This lesson provides an opportunity to assess retained knowledge thus far of the codes, conventions, layout and key terminology surrounding print texts. This resource includes an exam paper complete with marking criteria and examiner feedback as well as a Power Point that details how students can get a LV9 on their assessment/ future assessments.

NOTE: I am following EDUQAS Teaching Model 1 in my teaching/ SOW. As my school teaches a three year GCSE, I have set aside the first year for the following:

-TERM 1= Teaching the students production skills by designing a Media Campaign for our school production of 'Into the Woods'.

-TERM 2= Introduction to Media Concepts (Representation, Audience, Industry and Media Language).

-TERM 3= Exploring Media debates and contexts

(Each lesson is laid out as I teach my own class but I have added notes at the bottom of some of the slides e.g. on the Media Teaser, to aide teachers. All lessons are developed with differentiation, assessment/challenge as well as engagement entrenched heavily within all my resources. Moreover, constant reference is made throughout to the selected Examiner Media forms and is clearly laid out so that students quickly become accustomed to which forms fall under which section of each Component/ Exam ).
