Media Studies: session 1

Hi! This is the blog on which you will be working most of the time during the Media Studies AP.

1- For the first session I will introduce the goal of the AP and our final project.

2- Once that is done, I would like you to watch the following video and answer the questions below.

a- what is the second map describing? What is it supposed to represent? What is she trying to prove?

b- why is there less news about the rest of the world?

c- is it because people are less interested in the world?

d- do you think the same phenomenon happens in France?

3- Go to the BBC News website

This is a quick summary of the world News.

How many countries were mentioned? Were they the same as in France?

Performance aspect: Which words were said the loudest/the most accentuated? If you make a quick list, it is representative of the theme?
