YEAR 9: LESSON 3-4, CONVENTIONS OF PRINT MEDIA (NEW EDUQAS SPECIFICATION 2017 TEACHING ONWARD)

LESSON 3-4, CONVENTIONS OF PRINT MEDIA= This lesson includes a homework task and two resources attached to tasks within the double lesson. The double lesson looks at the conventions of Print platforms and closely focuses on Movie posters, advertising and Magazine covers. Key terms, conventions and codes are looked at in detail here.


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 ).
