Ignite presentation - learner response

- Sets out text and debate briefly - opening 

lacks a little confidence but improves

context provided - good structure and sets out the key aspect of the film

- Historical context is important - knowledge of film is clear here. However more detailed textual analysis and images would a lot to this presentation

- Depth of analysis/ media terminology is not sufficient for A2 but does at least provide a starting point.

- Structure and rehearsal weaker in middle than opening - jumps around a little and loses thread.

- Target audience - 80% male? is this true?

- could definitely make more of lack of historical accuracy - does this matter in this kind of film

- lack of focus on main issue - rep of homosexuality - is a major weakness and would need addressing for crit investigation

For my critical investigation I will not be using this media debate for my critical investigation

How have things changed by the internet??

Nature of information - The internet has made information more accessible and has provided a large vast variety of it.This means people can access information quicker and more efficiently than ever.The information you are looking for can be searched and an immediate response can be given.

Communication - The internet has made communication much less time consuming and easier with things like Skype (video conferencing).Also through the use of internet you can video conference with someone who may not be in that remote location.This means people are up to date with their family/friends lives in different parts of the world.

Community - The internet has a disadvantage on the community which is less face to face interaction happens and everything is done online.

Online Safety - Another threat from internet is that people's information can be harmed if their information is not secure.Also the internet increases the threat to be hacked and information taken without an being an authorised person.

Business - Businesses have been helped through the use of the internet as they have the largest medium which can market more people which then could improve sales of their business.Also the internet has provided websites for business that can be used for customers to order online or customer services.

Copyright - The internet has made copyright much more easier to do as work can be shared on things like social media however a law has been put it place to help defend against copyright on computer systems. The law is called copyright designs and patents act 1990.
