December Mock Exam: Learner Response Blog Tasks

 ) Type up any feedback on your paper (you don't need to write the mark and grade if you want to keep this confidential). If you only have marks and a grade on the paper, write a WWW/Next Steps yourself based on your scores.
33/84 and a grade 4 
www:a fair attempt at this paper with good timing displayed and good q1.4 tv analysis 
next steps: not enough evidence of knowledge displayed and gaps in knowledge in osp and ugc


2) Use the mark scheme for this Paper 2 mock (posted on GC) to read the answers AQA were looking for. First, write down a definition and example of non-diegetic sound (Q1.1 and 1.2). 

1.1 is sound that is made naturally and is kept in
1.2 is when will placed down the salt and pepper 


3) Next, identify three points you could have made in Q1.3 - camerawork and the extract. Look for the indicative content in the mark scheme - these are the suggested answers from AQA.

opening shot is almost a close up of wills hand on the omelette when he was about to pick it up,
medium shot of lyra suspiciously looking at the food reinforces power imbalancement in there relationship,
the wide shot and slow dolly tracking through the open door showing both characters together sitting at a table 


4) Now look at Q1.4 in the mark scheme - pick out two points from the mark scheme that you could have included in your answer.

non verbal communication as wills expression and body language is very timid subverting the masculine stereotype whilst lyra is confident,
mise en scene as lyra subverts the feminine stereotype as its blue and does not draw attention,
characters as will and lyra are clearly directed in this extract to subvert typical stereotypes as will is cooking the food 

5) Look at Q2 - the 20-mark essay on representations of age and social and cultural contexts. Pick out three points from the mark scheme that you didn't include in your answer.

meia representation of teens and young adults usally identify this group through attitudes and behaviours and there are many negative stereotypes of teenagers in television drama,
There are also positive representations of teens in which attributes such as freedom,
independence, creativity and social awareness are likely to be emphasised,
In HDM it is the teens/young adults who lead the way in driving the narrative
forward. The adults tend to accept their more peripheral roles or discuss the
prophecy that revolves around Lyra. The teens are proactive, and the adults react.


6) Turning your attention to Section B, write a definition and example of user-generated content - use the mark scheme to check it.

material contributed to media or posted on websites by non-professionals


7) Look at Q4 - the 20-mark essay on the power of influencers. Pick out three points from the mark scheme that you didn't include in your own answer. 

Marcus Rashford demonstrates this with his commercial partnerships with Burberry, Nike,
Coca-Cola and more.
Kim Kardashian's engagement rate is lower than Rashford at 0.33% but she has over 350
million followers so can still reach and engage with huge audiences.
Marcus Rashford’s Instagram engagement rate of 6% is exceptionally high. With more than
15m followers on Instagram this means an incredible number of ‘likes’ and ‘comments’ on
his post.


8) Now look at Q5 - the 20-mark essay on regulation and the internet. Again, pick out three points from the mark scheme that you didn't include in your own answer.

online bullying, intimidation or humiliation
• loss of self-esteem or confidence resulting from competitive use of social media
• distribution of ‘fake news’ or false stories
• diminished attention span and problems of addiction (especially in relation to social media)


9) On a scale of 1-10 (1 = low, 10 = high), how much revision and preparation did you do for your Media mock exam? Be honest here - it's a good chance to think about how to approach the next set of mock exams.  4

10) List three key things you want to revise before the next mock exams in February (e.g. particular CSPs, terminology, exam technique etc.)

learn csps 
terminology and 
practice questions
