I'd recommend, as your planning and research for G324 comes to an end you focus on evaluating your work and exploring your topic choice for Critical Media Perspectives. For some of the topics you do not need a case study as such but would definitely benefit from using example questions to help you prepare fully for the exam.

G325 Prep - Overview and Section A Focus
As we get ever closer to the exam we need to start looking at how to improve on the mocks marks. I have included, below, two presentations on the exam - one offering general information on both the exam and advanced portfolio (you can ignore the advanced portfolio stuff) and the other looks at key concepts in relation to your own production work.

G321 Coursework marking
I have started to mark your blogs for the research and planning component of G321 and am a little surprised to see work still missing.
I posted the link to the booklet, which explained what you needed to include and had advice on how to do well, a while back. All of you should have saved a copy to refer to - especially as the booklet had a checklist of tasks on the back. I am assuming that not all of you did.
I have uploaded the booklet to slideshare, and posted it below, for you to access. I suggest you do.
For those of you missing work, I have graded what you have on your blogs. I will look at them again on the 9th March. If work is still missing you will be expected to attend intervention.

Year 12 and 13 Deadlines
If you have any problems getting work to upload then you need to either email it to me or print it out and hand it to me. Don't pass it on to anyone else to give me. I would like the opportunity to mark all this work and feedback on it after the half term break so, if needed, you have plenty of time to add and improve work.
Therefore the only work you should have left to complete after half term is the filming and editing of your film opening/music video. You have until Easter to get that done and then the Easter holidays and two weeks following the holidays to evaluate and further improve on any tasks.
Therefore the actual final deadline for evaluations is the 24th April. I have to get marks sent off on the 27th so there is no chance of extending this. If you miss it your evaluations will not be marked and the marks will not be added to your overall grade.

G325 Exam Prep - Year 13
Several powerpoints covering We Media and Democracy. I have ordered the book by Dan Gilmour which can be found here; We the Media: Grassroots Journalism By the People, For the People
I am happy to lend it out but you may find it worthwhile to get yourselves a copy.
I have also saved the following document in the O drive;
