Final Week of revision

Year 13 students...I am sitting here ready to bestow my words of wisdom upon you and you are not here? You agreed to normal lessons this week for revision purposes!! Have you forgotten?

If you do make it in tomorrow - make sure you bring your essays - the one that I asked you to write 2 weeks ago on how the Media have replaced the family and religion in helping to create self identities.

In case you don't - I will post the mark scheme for you to self -assess your essay and some final notes on identity that you may find useful to being your argument in the exam NEXT WEEK.

They think it's all over; it is now.....for a while at least

Phew - the nightmare of coursework for you guys is over!! :) It was a stuggle due to technical difficulties and tempers and nerves got a bit tattered...but you can relax a little this weekend. Full steam ahead with working towards the G322 and G325 exams from next week. The exams are on : May 17th and June 16th respectively. Don't forget to look through the revision materials attached to this blog and read through your class notes at home.

Exam tips: when revising make notes - don't just read.
don't bother with generalised intros in the exam.
make sure you have 2/3 good theoretical quotes to 'hang' your argument on
don't waffle - be concise and precise

Year 13 - homework for this week: find and post a quote from your research on the topic of Collective Identity. Make sure you reference it and say why you have chosen it.
