Learner response Paper 2

1) Type up your feedback in full (you do not need to write mark/grade if you do not wish to).

Grade-D

2) Did you succeed in meeting or exceeding your target grade for A Level Media in this paper? If not, how many additional marks do you need to achieve your target grade in Paper 2?

I didn't reach my target grade and i need 76 marks in order to reach my target Grade.


These are the grade boundaries we've used, based on last year's A Level exam but raised slightly to account for the fact they will probably move up slightly (out of 84):  

A* = 75; A = 66; B = 54; C = 44; D = 32; E = 20.

Now read through the AQA mark scheme for Paper 2 - you'll already have looked at this in class when marking the exam booklet of other students' responses. The original Paper 2 question paper is here if that is helpful too.

3) Write a question-by-question analysis of your performance. For each question, write how many marks you got from the number available and identify any points that you missed by carefully studying the AQA indicative content in the mark scheme:

Question-1 


Example: Q2: 13/25 marks


4) Look at question 4 - the synoptic question on TV. Write a full, new essay plan for this question using the indicative content in the mark scheme (focus particularly on distribution) and taking care to include at least one paragraph that addresses the synoptic element. You can use bullet points but make sure you offer enough content to meet the criteria for Level 4 (top level). This will be somewhere between 4-6 well-developed paragraphs planned in some detail.

Paragraph 1 -Introduction of the two cps's Deutschland 83 and capital and talk about how both had a deal from free mantle.

Paragraph 2-Focus on capital and talk about its distribution by freemantle and broadcasted in BBC. Additionally talk about the multi nation characters and how its produced by kudos.

Paragraph 3-Focus on Deutschland 83 and talk about the history on Germany and the 
distributions by kudos.Additionally the international audience which it attracts.

Paragraph 4-Both shows and how they both are different each other.

 Paragraph 5-This paragraph will talk about chicken and how difficult the distribution of this movie was and how it took 2 years for it to come out.

5) Based on the whole of your Paper 2 learner response, plan FIVE topics / concepts / CSPs / theories that you will prioritise in your Easter Media revision timetable.

  • Magazines-men's health
  • David Gauntlet
  • Media effects theories
  • TV-capital and Deutschland 83
  • Exam tehcnique and hwo to include media terminology
