WWW: A solid start to Media - I particularly admire your courage for pursing an A Level in a subject that you previously did not study for GCSE. It is evident that you are interested in things that are associated with the media and you have an opinion which is crucial to the your success in this subject. I particular liked your Semiotics blog post and the examples you provided for Icon, Index & Symbol.

EBI: The concern is your missing work – which suggests a lack of organisation and attention to detail. Reading an Image and Reception theory are neither posted– I hope they are in drafts but I shouldn’t have to ask you to post them. I have no doubts that you have the mind of an A grade A Level student so please address immediately.

LR: Update your blog to make sure all work is fully completed. Then, reflect on your work in A Level Media so far. What is your strongest piece of work? What is your weakest? What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course?

I think my strongest piece of work is both of the semiotics tasks.

I think my weakest is the factsheet activities.

I need to develop my knowledge of different forms and genres of media and also being able to look at pieces through different viewpoints.
