Hello and welcome back! Hope you had a good break from college and not too much of a break from learning!
This lesson we are going to focus on Question 3.
To get your brains in gear, you need to write a quick quiz to test your fellow classmates knowledge of the terminology and theory needed for this question. Write 5 questions (you have a maximum of 10 minutes for this) that will test understanding. Post your questions on the Padlet Page and then have a go at some of the ones posted. Try to think beyond the obvious for a couple of them!! Comms Padlet Page
Next, we will look at a Question 3 altogether (June 2010) and then you can have a go a writing a full response for that and for the other examples the reading images questions. Remember you will have 26 minutes to do this response in the exam!

Bonne Chance mes amies! (Is this a barrier to communication?)

Exploring the Key Concepts
Morning!
As you know, the key concepts are at the heart of any response to an exam question. Your first task is to post your understanding of the key concepts on your blog. What are they and how would you define them.
Next, I would like you to consider the following cultural practices and make notes about them with reference to as many key concepts as you can.
You can use the table if you wish, or make notes in your own way.
Why we do what we do!
Finally, I would like you to analyse your bedroom in terms of the key concepts and the toolkit for analysis (signifier, signified, connotation etc)
You need to describe your room in as much detail as possible. Then explore what the different items signify in terms of your identity, power etc.
I will also come to discuss the moderation week work with you.
Easter Holiday Work:
Feel free to look at a range of exam papers and have a go.

Easter Holiday Work:
- Organise all your notes.
- Learn as much terminology and theory as you can. Making some flashcards is a useful way to do this.
- Write a 15 question quiz that we can do when we come back. Bring this to your first lesson back.
- Complete all the responses to the exam paper we looked at this week (obviously leave out the one you have already done!) Follow this link: January 2011
