December mock exam: Learner Response blog tasks

 1) 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/EBI yourself based on your scores.


(EBL)i need to know the definition of key words 

(WWW) good effort for the b20 marker question 2  

(score)36/84 grade 4 


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

definition =sound which characters and audience can both hear 
examples= dialogue between will and lyra 

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.

  • low angles of will means how he is helpless and inferior to lyra 
  • fast dolly shot when lyra walks in the house suggesting she is in control 

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.

  • Lyra’s costume subverts feminine stereotypes. It is blue, practical and does notemphasise her figure or draw attention.
  • Will and Lyra are clearly directed in this extract to subvert traditional gender stereotypes with Will cooking the food, dealing with domestic matters such as sleeping arrangements and acting in a timid and submissive way.

5) Focus on 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.
    • Although the idea of ‘teenage’ was not new, teenagers as a distinct category developed rapidly in the post-war years and was well established by 1963

    • Media representations of teens/young adults usually identify this group by their attitudes, behaviour, language, clothing and music.

    • doctor who =Susan reflect obedience and traditional for the 1460s teenagers 

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

    DEFINTION =material contributed to media or posted on websites by non-professionals
    EXAMPLES =a website I made about my favourite band


    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. 


    • By the end of 2019, the influencer marketing industry was worth some $8bn a year. One recent report by Insider Intelligence predicted that it would grow to $15bn globally by the end of 2022.
    • Marcus Rashford demonstrates this with his commercial partnerships with Burberry, Nike, Coca-Cola and more. The fact he appeals to such mainstream brands is evidence of his power in the digital age.
    • Even Marcus Rashford is not immune to criticism however. He has been accused of being too political and fans and critics have told him to ‘stick to football’.
    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.


    • an unregulated internet preserves the freedom of speech in a medium to which almost half the world’s population has access

    • it is difficult or impossible for national governments to regulate a global industry platform providers (eg Alphabet, Facebook) argue that they cannot be held fully responsible for everything that users upload – they have been increasingly successful in devising automated systems to detect and take down inappropriate or unlawful material
    • education is more important than regulation, children need to be taught how to use social media and the internet safely in order to benefit from the huge advantages
    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.

    in preparation and revision for the media test i have revised in a scale of 5 

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

    • focus on tv dama 
    • key definition 
    • marus rashford
