AUDIENCE THEORY 2

Theory Questions and Your Opinion   1) Social learning theory has been criticised for simplifying the causes of violence in society. Do you think the media is responsible for anti-social behaviour and violence? - I think that the media could be a possible factor for anti-social behaviour and violence because it is a very influential platform. People become to involved with the world they have within social media they become outsiders to the real world. I wouldn’t say the media is responsible for violence because as people we are able to tell what is right and wrong so we it wouldn’t only take the media to influence someone to commit violence it would include other factors. 2) How is social learning theory relevant in the digital age? Are young people now learning behaviour from social media and the internet? Give examples. - Social learning theory is relevant to the digital age because many people are influenced by what they see online and will try to replicate it in real life. Thi...

JANUARY ASSESSMENT LEARNER RESPONSE

-
1) Type up your feedback in  full  (you don't need to write the mark and grade if you want to keep this confidential). WWW: Q1 is a strong start (not far from the top level) and Q4 addresses a range of theories. There’s plenty to build on from here. EBI: Industries knowledge is the major weakness here: ownership and control and then public service broadcasting. Learn/ revise this in detail.

Identify at least one potential point that you missed out on for each question in the assessment. 1) How the combination of elements of media language influence meaning. 2) Conglomerate ownership - Dominate media industries through sheer size an...

FEMINIST THEORY

Media Magazine Reading   1) What examples are provided from the two texts of the 'male gaze' (Mulvey)? - Pan Am - Beyoncé  2) Do texts such as these show there is no longer a need for feminism or are they simply sexism in a different form? - It could be argued that Pan Am and Beyoncé show sexism as they reinforce the ideas of sexism in the past. For example, they both showcase the 1950s housewife persona where at that time the women would stay home and clean and cook. Also the outfit in Pan Am is sexualised to appeal to the male gaze. 3) Choose three words/phrases from the glossary of the article and write their definitions on your blog. - Feminism – A movement aimed at defining, establishing, and defending women’s rights and equality to men. - Post-feminism – An ideology in culture and society that society is somehow past needing feminism and that the attitudes and arguments of feminism are no longer needed. The Theory Drop: Gender Performativity 1) How does the writer s...
