Learner response January

 WWW- Your 20-Mark essay shows real potential and some good knowledge of the CSPs. If we can build on this we will push towards the higher levels.

EBI- Revise Vertical integration

- Be more specific and detailed in your written analysis-this is holding you back in q3 for example

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

Q1:1/1
Q2:0/1
Q3:2/8

Q4:
Q5:
Q6:

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

Vertical integration

4) Look specifically at question 3 - did you successfully write about both the preferred and oppositional readings? Did your answers match any in the mark scheme?

I only had time to write the preferred reading

5) Now look at question 4. Write a definition of vertical integration to revise this key industry terminology.

 vertical integration takes complete control over one or more stages in the production or distribution of a product.
