December mock exam: Learner Response blog tasks

 1) Type up any feedback on your paper (you don't need to write the mark and grade if you want to keep this confidential). If you only have marks and a grade on the paper, write a WWW/EBI yourself based on your scores.

www- you attempted every question which is greater. Now we need to add the exam technique and revision to move to the higher grades 

ebi-reading and understanding the question is so important. we will look at this in class so you dont misread questions in the real exams  




2) Use the mark scheme for this Paper 2 mock to read the answers AQA were looking for. First, write down a definition and example of non-diegetic sound (Q1.1 and 1.2). 

1.1 all sounds generated within the world of the drama

 1.2 any example of dialogue from the extract such as ‘When Lyra says, “So you’re a
kitchen boy then?”


3) Next, identify three points you could have made in Q1.3 - camerawork and the extract. Look for the indicative content in the mark scheme - these are the suggested answers from AQA.

Good analysis of the extract that is clear and generally engages
with the nuanced aspects of what is communicated by the
camerawork.
• Generally appropriate use of the theoretical framework but there
are occasional inaccuracies/omissions.
• Mostly appropriate and effective use of subject specific
terminology.

4) Now look at Q1.4 in the mark scheme - pick out two points from the mark scheme that you could have included in your answer.

Lyra’s costume subverts feminine stereotypes. It is blue, practical and does not
emphasise her figure or draw attention. It helps to establish Lyra as a practical,
confident character who is used to surviving on her own.
• The way Lyra first investigates and then eats the omelette also subverts feminine
stereotypes. Her interaction with props in the scene deliberately subvert ideas of
being ‘ladylike’ or feminine.

5) Focus on Q2 - the 20-mark essay on representations of age and social and cultural contexts. Pick out three points from the mark scheme that you didn't include in your answer.

• Good knowledge and understanding of contexts of media and
their influence on media products and processes, demonstrated
by frequent effective discussion of age representations, in
relation to the two close study products.
• Good judgements and conclusions that are frequently supported
by relevant examples.
• Frequent appropriate and effective use of subject specific
terminology.


6) Turning your attention to Section B, write a definition and example of user-generated content - use the mark scheme to check it.

• material created by those whose main role is as users of media such as newspapers, television,
radio, magazines, the internet or web or online systems

7) Look at Q4 - the 20-mark essay on the power of influencers. Pick out three points from the mark scheme that you didn't include in your own answer. 

Good analysis of the product(s) that is clear and often engages with the

nuanced aspects of celebrity and power.
• Good judgements and conclusions which focus on ‘power’ and which
are usually well supported by relevant examples.
• Frequent appropriate and effective use of subject specific terminology.

8) Now look at Q5 - the 20-mark essay on regulation and the internet. Again, pick out three points from the mark scheme that you didn't include in your own answer.

• Excellent knowledge and understanding of the theoretical framework,
demonstrated by consistently effective discussion of the debate about
regulation of social media and the internet.
• Excellent, astute judgements and conclusions that are consistently well
supported by relevant examples.
• Consistent appropriate and effective use of subject specific
terminology throughout.

9) On a scale of 1-10 (1 = low, 10 = high), how much revision and preparation did you do for your Media mock exam? Be honest here - it's a good chance to think about how to approach the next set of mock exams.

5

10) List three key things you want to revise before the next mock exams in February (e.g. particular CSPs, terminology, exam technique etc.)
to revise the advert
to go over my exam and think what to improve
To try remember mise-en-scene
