TV Assessment: Learner Response

1) Type up your feedback in full (you don't need to write the mark and grade if you want to keep this confidential).


2) Read the whole mark scheme for this assessment carefully. Identify at least one potential point that you missed out on for each question in the assessment (even if you got full marks for the question).


3) The first question demanded a response using postmodern terminology. Write a definition here of the three main terms:


Bricolage:

Pastiche:

Intertextuality:


4) Look over your mark, teacher comments and the mark scheme for Question 2 - the 25 mark essay question on your TV Close-Study Products. Write a complete essay plan for this question based on the suggested answers in the mark scheme. You can either use something similar to your actual answer or alternatively start from scratch. Make sure it is an extensive, detailed plan focused on the question (representations; social and cultural contexts of production) and offering specific references to Capital and Deutschland 83 for each section.


5) Based on this assessment, write three things you need to revise before the end of Year 12 exams in June.

When the audience is watching this for the first time this scene can build tension. Then the next scene where Dutch slowly turns around and looks at him builds even more tension. Then tension dies off in an exciting manner and goes to the iconic scene. In the next couple of scene, we can analy...
