SCLY3: Mass Media
This unit is much smaller than unit four, however you are still expected to know a lot of information. There is still a 33 mark question however this is not a theory and methods question. There are actually only three questions here, a short answer question, an assessment of the media in relation to a context and a 33 mark essay question.
There are six main topics in this unit we will need to learn. Each topic will have essential reading that you will need to know for the lessons. Please familiarise yourself with this.
Topic One - Media Ownership and Control
Topic Two - New Media and Popular Culture
Topic Three - Presentation of News and Moral Panics
Topic Four - Media Representations
Topic Five - Representation of the Body
Topic Six - Age, Ethnicity, Gender and Class (same document as above)
