Television: Final index

We have now completed our work on Television - our first in-depth topic and one guaranteed to come up in Paper 2.  

We now now need to create an index to make sure we have completed all the blog work for this topic. Every index you create is an excellent way to make sure you are revising the course as we go - as well as highlighting if you've missed anything. Your index should include the following:

For your index, the text should link to YOUR blogpost for that topic so you can access your work quickly and easily for checking and revision. This also means if you have missed anything you can catch up with the work and notes and won't underperform in assessments and exams due to gaps in your knowledge. Look at the video below if you're not sure how to create an index.

Assessment revision

You will have an assessment on the Television topic on Tuesday 22 June. This will be an assessment based on Paper 2 Section A to help prepare for this aspect of the final exams. You'll need to revise everything you've learned for Television across the four key concepts - Language, Representations, Industries and Audience.

You can find both CSP episodes on our Greenford Google drive if you want to re-watch key scenes as part of your revision.

Recap: How to create an index

To create an index on your Media blog, first copy the list of tasks above and paste it as plain text into a new blogpost called 'Advertising & Marketing: Final index'. Then, open your Media blog in another tab and use your blog archive to open up all your work from last term. For each post, copy the URL - this is the web address that will end .blogspot.com/name of the post. For example: 

https://mediamacguffingcseyear1.blogspot.com/2020/01/representation-introduction.html

Once you've got the hang of it, you should find the index only takes 10-15 minutes to produce. Here's a short video showing you how to create a blog index in Media in case you've forgotten:
