COMPONENT 1, SEC B MASTERY EDUQAS AS LEVEL SHEETS: DAILY MIRROR (IND)

This resource is part of a set of resources designed to assess students and revisit content at various points throughout the entirety of their AS course. Each resource comprises of a task or mock questions taken from the SAMS. The resource includes:

-4A and B stepped questions on ‘DAILY MIRROR’ (IND)
-Banded terms glossary (3-5) for stretch and challenge
-Marking criteria with indicative content
-2 differentiated help sheet with key slides from my power points to aide students as a last result (they are encouraged not to use these if possible).

The questions covered are:

Section B: Investigating Media Industries and Audiences
(a) Name the media organisation that owns the Daily Mirror. [1]
(b) Identify two ways in which newspapers are distributed. [2]
© Briefly explain an advantage of one of these ways. [2]
In Question 3(d), you will be rewarded for drawing together knowledge and understanding from across your full course of study, including different areas of the theoretical framework and media contexts.
(d) Explain how political contexts affect the newspaper industry. Refer to the Daily Mirror to support your points. [10]

I have trialled these packs and my students love them commenting that they are great for revision and revisiting content in a supported way, that they may not have visited in a year or so. I have set these as cover, revision in private study, as a whole lesson task or for H/W. Content often stretches on these sheets from between 2-3 lessons and I usually get my students to swap work when complete with a peer for peer assessment.

If you liked this resource and found it useful, it would be greatly appreciated if you could feedback or rate my resource as I am constantly trying to adapt and refine my resources to improve the learning of my students. Many thanks.
