The Evaluation

The Mark Scheme

·         Excellent skill in the use of appropriate digital technology or ICT in the evaluation.

·         Excellent understanding of issues around audience, institution, technology, representation, forms and conventions in relation to production.

·         Excellent ability to refer to the choices made and outcomes.

·         Excellent understanding of their development from preliminary to full task.

·         Excellent ability to communicate.

Evaluation guidance:

1. Create a separate blog post for each question.
2. Don’t post long blocks of text; add pictures to illustrate your answers.
3. You MUST use digital technology in your evaluation.

E.g. A PowerPoint uploaded using SlideShare or a Prezi. Go for variety; really try to demonstrate that you can use technology effectively.  Again add pictures to illustrate your answers

4. Use as much media / magazine technical vocabulary as possible: connotations, masthead, generic conventions, coverlines, puffs, pugs,  house style, mode of address, brand identity…etc
5. Start thinking about and drafting your evaluation as soon as possible!
