A complete set of lesson slides and analytical tasks designed to teach A-Level Media Studies students how to analyse print advertising in depth. This resource was originally used to teach the Dove, River Island and Shelter print adverts (2024 OCR A-Level Media Studies set products); however, teachers will need to check the most current specification and adapt content where necessary.
The lesson pack provides a strong foundation in analysing media language, representation, audience positioning, and wider social and cultural contexts within print advertising. Tasks and examples are structured to build higher-level analytical skills suitable for all A-Level Media Studies courses.
This resource is ideal for OCR, AQA, EDUQAS/WJEC or any exam board requiring students to explore:
• Media language in advertising
• Representation and ideology
• Audience targeting and positioning
• Industry and brand identity
• Visual codes, layout and design
• Contextual influences on advertising campaigns
Includes:
• Lesson slides covering analysis of Dove, River Island and Shelter adverts
• Structured tasks to build analytical writing and exam-style responses
• SEN/AEN-friendly layout and clear explanations
• Suitable for cover delivery with minimal preparation
• Adaptable for use in KS4 Media or as A-Level foundation teaching
This pack is a flexible, high-quality introduction to print advert analysis and an excellent starting point for any A-Level Media Studies unit on advertising across exam boards.
