October Assessment Learner Response

I got 19/25, grade 6.

2) Read the mark scheme for this assessment carefully. Write down the mark you achieved for each question:

Q1:1/1

Q2:1/1

Q3:2/2

Q4:2/2

Q5:1/2

Q6:3/3

Q7:2/2

Q7:2/2

Q8:4/4

Q9:3/8

Where you didn't achieve full marks, write WHY you think you missed out on the extra marks. Use the indicative content suggestions in the mark scheme to help with this.

On question 5 i got only 1 mark out of 2 because i didn't mention the typography like the font or colour. For question 9 i needed to analyse the advert in more detail, connotation and denotation and also i needed to add more media terminolgy.

3) Did you get any media terminology wrong in the assessment? Make a note of it here for future revision: 

no i didn't get any wrong. i just needed to add more terminology

4) Identify one of your stronger questions. Why did you do better on this question?

question 8 was probably my strongest question because i got 4/4 and i used correct media terminology, also in this question it was the most correct. 

5) Identify one of your weaker questions. Why did you score lower on this particular question?

question 9 was my weekest question as i only got 3/8, but it was because i did not explain myself well enough and this links with why i needed to analyse the advert more.

6) Re-draft your answer to Q9 and type it out in full. Use the mark scheme to identify anticipated content you can add to your response and make sure your typed re-draft is a top-level answer of at least three paragraphs. 

The effect of suing a child is that it can make the consumers feel sympathy toward the child as they are vulnerable and innocent because the situation they're in is not their fault. Also if the adults viewing it are parents it can encourage them to donate because they wouldn't want their child to be in those conditions. Children generally need to be protected and kept safe so this will appeal to a target audience who could possibly have children of their own.

The producers have used a child because it has more of an emotional impact to the consumers as they are young and helpless and the child in this advert looks like he lacks basic necesisties. The use of a child in need will hopefully compel the audience to donatye and give money because they are vulnerable.
