Assessment

The course is for two years and this qualification is linear. Linear means that students will sit all their exams and submit all their non-exam assessments at the end of the course. The core content includes media language, media representation, media industries, and media audiences. Exam questions will focus on issues and debates in the media. Students will be expected to use any relevant elements of the theoretical framework in order to explore the ideas in the paper. Other questions will focus on the analysis of media products, through the lens of the theoretical framework. Non-exam assessment focuses on the creation of a media product demonstrating practical skills relating to a media format of their choice.
