Media Studies Yr11/Yr12 Introduction Lesson

This lesson and accompanying worksheet is designed as a resource for a ‘taster’ session for all Media Studies A-Level courses. It looks at the 4 study areas of Media language, audiences, industries and audiences in brief detail, then provides a media language sound analysis task for students to complete (a written task, as the majority of the A-level is written!) This has writing frame slides for both higher and lower ability students.

There’s also a development task, linking sound to audience.

This is an effective taster lesson (or double lesson) for students to give them a realistic idea of the rigours of the course.
