GCE Media Unit 3 Section C - Video games

Media Studies
KS5 >

A set of fully interactive resources to support the teaching of the Video Games topic for A2 Media Studies. The resources are structured around the four key areas of the theoretical framework: Media Language, Representation, Media Industries and Audience, using examples from the set products. A set of teacher notes explains how the resources can be used in class, and the resource includes extension tasks for learners to complete independently. The activities offer plentiful opportunities for learners to analyse the games, explore industry and audience issues, and apply critical perspectives.

While all resources were correct at the time of publishing, teachers should be aware that things move quickly in the media industry and should therefore check that the information is still current and correct.
