Block 6 of Media Studies continues to focus on a range of media texts, both print and digital. We will look at their history and development including advances in technology and changes in the social roles of individuals and groups in society reflecting on the influences that have shaped media as it is today. This will include newspapers and magazines, television programmes, radio programmes and films. How do they convey meaning? How are they made and by whom? In our sixth block, we will focus on Radio, considering how it has evolved and its importance and impact on current society. We will finish our study for the year by looking at the expectations for GCSE Media Studies which will benefit those hoping to study for a qualification.

NOTE: This is a continuing course and although each Block has a separate focus, it will helpful to complete previous Blocks (available as recordings) before moving on to Block 6 activities as previous activities and media terminology will be referenced. This is not a GCSE course, but the content of the course includes all topics covered for GCSE. To understand how to analyse and discuss media texts, including their history, evolution and current form as well as their place in today's society.
