YEAR 12 (MEDIA EDUQAS LINEAR): COMP1, SEC B: RADIO 'LATE NIGHT WOMEN'S HOUR' AND INDUSTRY

LESSON 24-27 IN THE SERIES OF SECTION B LESSONS: INDUSTRY= This QUAD continues to look at Late Night Women’s Hour and Industry issues. I have worked extensively on this series of lessons (7 lessons in total) as Staff, students and feedback from Media Teachers around the country have specified that this form is especially hard to teach with regards to student engagement and accessibility. This Quad lesson looks at:

-The lesson is focused around a stimuli of two radio SAMS questions. After learning the content, students should then be able to attempt the question under timed conditions.
-Platforms (E-Media, Broadcast and Print).

• PBS, LOCAL RADIO,NATIONAL COMMERCIAL AND INDEPENDENT RADIO.
• Variation in different BBC Radio brands/ channels.
• Convergence Theory.
• Trustworthiness of radio. Is it a dying medium?
• Marshall McLuhan ‘Medium is the Message’ and the Digital Divide.
• Varying content (Podcasts and DAB Radio).
• Scheduling and Prime time
• Stripping content
• Regulation
• Self-regulation vs Independent Regulation
• Types of Independent Regulator A* sheet for all forms
• The advantages of ‘LNWH’ and the delivery of content
• Market Liberalism
• Political Economist
• Pluralism
• “It could be argued that Late Night Woman’s Hour challenges the idea that media is controlled by a small number of companies driven by the logic of profit and power”. Do you agree or disagree? Create a for and against brainstorm, writing the question in the middle.
• Responsive task and peer feedback task in-built based upon Timed Response

**H/W Task contained within the POwer Point as well as all links needed to content (Usually found in the notes section of the Power Point)
**
Use of EDUQAS fact sheet breakdown as my students commented that they were finding this particular fact sheet hard to access (Differentiation).

THIS LESSON INCLUDES ALL LINKS, PRINTABLE RESOURCE AND PRINTABLE RESOURCE SHEETS WITHIN THE POWER POINT

This will be uploaded as a series of lessons on Component 1, Section Band will be part of a group of resources with different theories/terms as headings under each Exam Component.

This lesson is therefore Ideal for those wanting to Team Teach or teach Component 1, Sections A and B at differing times.

NOTE: I am following EDUQAS Teaching Model 1 in my teaching/ SOW and my school is only providing Media Studies at A-Level, as a Two- Year Course. Moreover, each lesson has a task whereby students RAG (Red, Amber, Green) what they have learnt in the lesson against an Examiner checklist (Differentiation, 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.
