Clarification of assessment specifications for Scholarship Media Studies 2008

12 September 2008 - SC2008/003

In response to enquiries from teachers, a clarifying statement has been added to the assessment specifications for Scholarship Media Studies, as follows:

Question Three will focus on the close reading of media texts.

The intention of question 3 is to provide candidates with the opportunity to draw general conclusions about the medium, wider media and society, based on their own close reading of a range of media texts. Candidates will not be expected to close read unseen media texts in the examination.
