How much of a Global Consumer are you?
Consider the music you listen to, the tv programmes you watch, the films you enjoy, the clothes you wear, the restaurants you eat at, the news you listen to, the magazines you read, the technology you use - where is it from?
Are you made in Great Britain or are you a Global Consumer.

Read this article on Globalisation and work through the activities.

After this please consider these questions:

1. What kind of media are increasingly global in terms of production and distribution?

2. How have global media developed, in historical terms, and how inclusive is this trend in reality?

3. What kinds of audience behaviour and consumption are increasingly global?

4. What are the arguments for and against global media, in relation to content, access, representation and identity?

Example of WeMedia

This is an example of WeMedia that was put together by my students during a student led lesson on We-Media.
They were asked to express their opinion on any subject using any form and put it anywhere as an example of We-Media.

Media in the Online Age Revision

This is the video we started watching on the way YouTube works and the impact it has had on culture, the media and people's lives.
As a revision task for Media in the Online Age watch the video and use it as examples to then answer the following questions:

1. How have online media developed?

2. How is consumer behaviour and audience response transformed by online media, in relation to the past?

Lesson 14 Tasks

Today all teams must finish their info-films and embed them onto your blogs.

Next - all teams will be required to teach the rest of the class about their theme. On Friday you will all pick out at random a date to teach your class.
Teams will be required to lead the group for 1 hour. The purpose of the lesson will be to inform the rest of the group what your theme is about so that they are equipped to understand the basics of the theme for the exam.
A typical lesson would include the following:
* Explanation of theme
* Group task
* Feedback
* Summary of what they learnt

You have today and Friday in which to plan out your lesson and if you require any materials photocopying for the session I must have them by the end of Friday's lesson.

Lesson 13 Tasks

Today is all about making your info films.
It is essential that you create an account with Xtranormal and keep an eye on your credit otherwise you may go to publish your film and it will ask you for money.

In addition, here are some extra links for you all that will further improve the understanding of your theme through real life examples. You decide which one is relevant for your theme.

Your scripts are coming along really well - there are some excellent features in all of them so well done.
Everyone has feedback on the scripts on your blogs and everyone has some additions/revisions to make before we can move onto the production of the film.
Please read your feedback, make the changes, get Andrea to check them and then you can begin production.
