YR 10 Use Media Edusites to help with Assignment 1 Magazines

Hello Yr 10,

Take a look at the link bar on the right hand side of this blog.

Click on the Media Edusites link and get a password off Mr Milligan to gain access.


Once you've gained access look for the AQA GCSE link in the top left hand side of the Media Edusites page.  Click and then look for magazines - you will find a wealth of help and guidance for your first assignment.

Good Luck,

Mr Milligan.

Hello Yr 11,


You're close to finishing Assignment 2.  Double check through the mark scheme and the exemplars to make sure you've completed all the tasks and covered all the criteria.

Look in the Nelson Thorne Text Books to run through what you should have covered for this Cross Media Assignment,

You should also take a look at the BBC GCSE Media Studies help site.  This has some really good info on advertising costs and regulation of the industry through the ASA ( Advertising Standards Agency) an institution that makes sure the advertisements are acceptable to be seen by the public (similar to BBFC and films, PEGI and video games).

Mr Milligan.
