English GCSE Media Coursework 1. How does advertising reinforce gender stereotypes? Today in the late 1990’s we can not escape advertising it bombards us from all types of media and every aspect of our lives. It is a multibillion-pound industry that stereotypes genders and tells us what we could become if we use certain products. Men being portrayed as cool, tough, athletic and stylish reinforce the gender stereotypes. One advert I have studied which reinforces the male stereotype is an advertisement
This question is going to investigate how reliable source A is, about peoples attitude towards women’s suffrage. Source A shows waomen holding papers and leaflets banging on the door, but ‘John bull’ is barricading the door. ‘John Bull’ is portrayed as the British Government not letting women into parliament to get the vote, he has fists clenched and is determined to not let women in. The women banging on the door look ugly, fat, un-ladylike and dirty, the cartoonist may be biased towards women
1. Looking at where this source came from, (a history book), my primary opinion would be that the author should place no blame at all on either parties detailed in his writings. The purpose of a history book is not to put forward the opinions of the writer, but to display the facts and events of the time period in question. However, as is most common nowadays, books such as these can be used by governments as propaganda, and for all I know the author could be extremely biased. Then, the date should
GCSE English Directors Notes on Act 4 of The Crucible by Arthur Miller As the Director of this play, I feel it is my responsibility to offer you advice on playing the character of John Proctor. I'm sure you'll find it may help you to understand the character if you are aware of the social and historical context of the play. The play is set in 1692 and is based upon the outbreak of accusations in Salem, Massachusetts. Arthur Miller wrote the play The Crucible, using the 17th-century case of
essay is an exploration into the relevance of MidYIS tests as a predictor for results at GCSE Music. A comparison will be made between two sets of skills: those assessed by the MidYIS test - taken by most children in England at the beginning of year 9 - and those which, according to exam boards and experienced music educators, are tested at GCSE. Certain fundamental skills required for success at GCSE Music cannot be tested in the MidYIS tests, and I would suggest that a combination of MidYIS-type
individualÂ’s scores in GCSE Mathematics and English Literature. Also, I aim to find out whether the correlation (if present) is negative or positive. Reason for Investigation: I have decided to investigate this as at my previous high school many of my teachers, but in particular my English literature teacher, thought that if a pupil was a high achiever in the English Literature GCSE then it was unlikely that they were also a high achiever in the Mathematics GCSE. She had reached this conclusion
This essay will examine both "The Speckled Band" by Conan Doyle and "Visitors" by Brian Moon and will look at how each one conforms to or diverges from the conventions of the detective story and also how each story is representative of the century it was written in by how it presents the woman, the hero and the villain. The conventions of the detective story were mostly established in the early twentieth century yet "The Speckled Band" was written in the late nineteenth century. However, it still
GCSE Psychology What is Psychology? If you’re interested in people and why they behave then studying GCSE psychology could be for you. Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and human behaviour. Psychologists conduct experiments to observe how we behave under different circumstances. By doing so we can better understand what motivates and challenges us. We can go on to predict behaviour and that allows us to tackle a variety of problems. For example, if I know that paying
It wasn't until I began GCSE that I ever began to think of maths as something to take further in life. I appreciated the satisfaction of getting questions right after working through the problems. I then went on to take a level math which was a small leap from GCSE as we started to study new concepts. Working through the more complex question has helped to enhance my ability to analyse information which I believe will apply to all aspect of life. I’m interested in taking an accounting and finance
is for you to get good exam grades’ but actually your checked for your exam grades you need at least a C to get into a college in every subject a C is really high for a lot of students. ‘The GCSE pass rate has risen every year since the exams were first sat in 1988. Between 2000 and 2009, the percentage of GCSEs awarded an A* to C increased by more than 10 percentage points .’ This is a part of a government Q&A about the exam it is going to change because the pass rate is higher but has no one thought
Gemini-Scout is a remote-controlled robot that does search-and-rescue work in underground mines. The robot is less than two feet tall and has wheels which enable it to go up and down stairs and make tight turns. Gemini may be small, but it is strong and can easily carry food, water, and other supplies. It was midday when Mission Control got the alert that there was a trapped miner. The report had said that a miner was trapped under some rocks that had fallen tumbling onto the miner. Mission Control

It is based during the Iraq War. The film was produced and directed by Kathryn Bigelow and is 131 minutes long.

There are three main characters in this sequence, Sgt Thompson
Audience, I’ve come to bargain. Doctor Strange is one of the greatest superhero movies of all time. Sporting a stellar cast, remarkable visual effects and a fast-paced, action-packed story, Doctor Strange has all of the tools for a successful movie. The title role of Stephen Strange is portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch, mostly well known for portraying Sherlock Holmes in the BBC series Sherlock, and Khan Noonien-Singh in the movie Star Trek: Into Darkness. The movie follows Strange and his arc,

I hope to gain a business degree so that I am able to work in various businesses on an international basis. My academic programme includes Business Studies, Geography
Album: Switchfoot ‘The Edge of the Earth’ EP Review By Jessica Morris Following the success of their ninth studio album Fading West which debuted at #6 on the Billboard charts, rock and roll alumni Switchfoot gave fans a taste of their life on tour with the music/surf documentary of the same name. The film highlighted the micro process the five-piece went through to create the distinctive sound of their album, but it also left fans wanting more. Enter the release of the EP The Edge of the Earth:
Western tradition: (Josquin des Perez “Ave Maria” and Bach “Allegro”) Music during this period by the composer’s songs I listened to was very pleasant to listen to. It is a high renaissance style of polyphonic vocal music. The motet "Ave Maria” is a great example of the style during this time frame. This song had a great opening and subsequent structural interplay. The opening section summarizes the first four lines of text in a simple structure. Clear imitation of each phrase echoes from the highest
1) From experiences, I know grade 7s are competitive and active when it comes to games they like. Therefore the activity mustn’t be too boring, static or with no competition. The activity I’ve came up with is called Pass the ball which is related to Hot potato but with a literary twist. So to begin the goal of this game is not to be the one holding the ball at the end and avoid elimination. So basically all that is needed is a ball and to set up the participants sit in a circle, with enough space
I have an interest and passion for Religious Studies and wish to pursue a degree in Religion to further develop my knowledge, ambition and understanding which I will eventually carry on to a PGCE qualification. By studying Religion and Ethics at GCSE I became fascinated in various world faiths and how religious beliefs affect attitudes, lifestyle and behaviour; this influenced my A' Level choice and at A' Level I have particularly enjoyed the study of Judaism and Buddhism at a much deeper level.
