Just to let you know that we've got a visit from the BBFC examiner on Friday 5th December during periods 3 & 4. These aren't media lessons but I'll inform your other subjects that you're going to miss those lessons. Some of you have film studies with me period 4 so I'll get the rest of the class to join us.

Laura and Helen - glad to see you're following this blog!

Hi all

It's great to see you've all started to use your blogs to log your critical research.
The best way to use it is like an online diary to help you with question 1. Each time you carry out a new piece of research explain where you found it, what it was, how useful it was and why you looked for it etc. This way you will be able to write about your research methods really easily.

Happy researching
Mrs L (aka rolling stone)
