OCR J200 GCSE Media Studies Unit 3 NEA SOL Teacher

Barry Rainsford | Monday December 05, 2016

Categories: GCSE, OCR GCSE

Like the Edusites Core Units, this NEA section involves exploring:

  • The role and manipulation of media language
  • The representations in these products
  • Issues of audience
  • Institutional issues such as genre, branding, regulation
  • How the media creates or represents attitudes, behaviours and beliefs

Access to the internet is essential for using the lesson slides and meet the Assessment Objectives.

Some lessons lend themselves to being divided into more than one session. Where this is possible/desirable it is indicated in this Scheme of Learning. You will, of course, have a much greater understanding of the needs, capacities, pace of your students and make these decisions where you feel most appropriate to their needs.
