February-March learner response

-
WWW- I am really impressed with how much effort you have made with your case studies. It is all your own work and in a lot more detail. You are using more media terminology correctly.

EBI- You need to take your answers even further, for example you say the magazine Reveal advertises itself as the 'reader's best friend' but you could add 'which suggests...' and then tell me what this means about the type of magazine it is. Same with the colour schemes - you say what colours are used but not what they connote. I am not sure you understand preferred and oppositional reading.

LR- Also look at the blog post on Macguffin on Preferred and Oppositional reading (as well as notes in your book) as I am not sure you completely understand this. Once you have understood it, please write about these in relation to both CSPs.
You could try and get on to the extension tasks too.
