Learner Response
WWW: Fundamentally, you
have two solid case studies here that clearly show an understanding of the exam
CSPs across all four key concepts. The points where you engage with media
debates – such as the representation of women – are the stronger sections and they
are the areas we need to build on.
LR: Go back to both case
studies and take on at least one of the extension tasks for each. Post links to
the updated blogposts in your LR blogpost once this is complete.
In the article 'Tab Calling time on Zoella' the writer starts with the title "Calling time on Zoella, the 27-year-old woman-child who needs to let go" the phrase "woman child" is used to highlight her childish, juvenile act that she puts on while filming her videos. They also touch on the fact that she over prices her products. In the article it states that people will call her "scammella" as her £50 advent calendar is not worth its high value. It could be argued that she is taking advantage of the fact that her fans will do anything for her, like purchasing expensive products. Going back to her age, the article talks about how they believe that its weird that young children from 6-13 are watching a 27 year old do things that young teenagers would do such as Primark shopping hauls, and makeup looks.
