Student DIRT Task

Identify a strength or strengths in your assessment: Overall, my assessment had been planned out and prepared well, as I had shown understanding of the questions and planned out the way I answered my questions. Firstly, I analysed C.L.A.M.P.S accurately when analysing the advert. In addition to this, I showed an understanding of Stuart Hall and his reception theory, along with what they mean. Furthermore, basic understanding on key terminology had been shown, but not in depth.   What are the areas you need to improve? In order to improve my work, my main problem was timing. Therefore, practicing questions and writing the correct amount would help get more marks. Moreover, next time I need to remember to include media examples for all my answers, which will help me to gain further marks.   What do you need to focus on for your next assessment? My main focus for my next assessment would be timing, as I had previously missed out a whole section.  This could help further my marks and improve my level for next time.
