We now need to update our MIGRAIN blog index (we last updated this in December) with all the work we've done recently. As you know, it is important we are revising terminology and theory on an ongoing basis and making sure there are no gaps as the course continues. The vast majority of the course will be tested in an exam situation and there could easily be a question on a specific theory that we've covered in the last three half-terms. If you have missed any lessons or blog tasks this will significantly disadvantage you.
MIGRAIN Final index
Keeping an index of all your work is extremely good practice from a revision perspective. Not only does this keep the concepts and media terminology fresh in your mind but it will also highlight if you've missed anything through absence or trips. Your index should now include the following:
1) Introduction to Media: 10 questions
2) Media consumption audit
3) Semiotics blog tasks - English analysis and Icon, Index, Symbol
4) Language: Reading an image - advert analyses
5) Reception theory - advert analyses part 2
6) Genre: Factsheets and genre study questions
7) Narrative: Factsheet questions
8) Audience: classification - psychographics presentation notes
9) October assessment learner response
10) Audience theory 1 - Hypodermic needle/Two-step flow/U&G
11) Audience theory 2 - The effects debate - Bandura, Cohen
12) Industries: Ownership and Control
13) Industries: Hesmondhalgh - The Cultural Industries
14) Industries: Public Service Broadcasting
15) Industries: Regulation
16) Representation: Introduction to Representation
17) Representation: Feminism - Everyday Sexism & Fourth Wave MM article
18) Representation: Feminist theory
19) Representing ourselves: Identity in the online age - MM article & Factsheet
20) Ideology: BBC Question Time analysis and MM articles
You'll have done a lot of this index already - a quick time-saving tip is to copy the HTML from your original index blogpost and paste it in your new index blogpost. This will give you the first few links and you can add to it from there. If you simply add to your previous index, make sure you change the date to today (use the 'Schedule' tab on the right-hand menu to do this).
Remember, this is your index, so the text should link to your corresponding blogpost so you can access your work on each key concept quickly and easily. This also means you if you have missed anything you can now catch up with the work/notes over half-term and won't underperform in future assessments due to gaps in your knowledge.
Due date: on Google Classroom along with any missing work the index has highlighted
