Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Students receive 6 hour weekly workshops across the integrated TV newsroom. The studios are used to illustrate exercises and allow learners to participate in newsdays, where within an industry setting and with realistic standards, durations and deadlines, they produce and present bulletins/programmes. (LOs 1,2,3,4,5) Through demonstration, practice and critical analysis, students develop the necessary journalistic and technical skills to produce TV packages, bulletins and programmes to a high standard. (LOs 2,3,4) Weekly production meetings and class exercises further develop critical analysis, reflection and critical communication of contemporary issues. (LOs 1,5).
|
There will be a number of formative assessments during the module. These will include individual Avid editing projects during workshops, scriptwriting and group camera skills exercises in studio and on location (LOs 2 - 4). Students will then work together in a production team on a number of formative news days (LOs 2 - 5). In each of these cases students will receive formative feedback at the end of each project.
|
There will be three summative assessments. Assessment one is practical, and requires students to find, research, set-up, record, script and edit a 2-3 minute TV package. This should be accompanied by a 500 word online article (LOs 2,3). Assessment two is a TV newsday and students will receive a group mark based on the output (Los 2 – 4). The final assessment is an essay based on theories and industry issues around TV news (Los 1 & 5)
