Lesson 24 - 24th March
Today's lesson will be devoted to the improvement and completion of your Ancillary Tasks. Review and evaluate the feedback you were given last week and make sure you publish a 'response to feedback' post on your blog. Clearly demonstrate where and how improvements to your products have been made on your Ancillary Task pages. Don't forget to replace Lorem Ipsum with a genuine review of your film, adopting an appropriate register for your target audience (this is part of the assessment criteria so take your time).
All research and planning for your Ancillary Tasks must be completed by Friday (27th March). An effective research & planning approach is to publish a flat plan of your proposed product before you start on the content. A flat plan is a plan made up of labelled boxes identifying content type only. Here is an example. Google it for see other, often better, examples. It would be very easy to construct a flat plan for both of your products in Quark using the text box tool. You would then develop the content and construction skills, leading to a draft product.
Once your product is complete, an effective way of demonstrating your success is to deconstruct your own product, just as you would for real products in your Ancillary Task research & planning stage. This will clearly demonstrate how you have observed technical codes & conventions and addressed issues of representation. A simple annotated screenshot is one of the most effective ways of doing this, but many other methods exist (including the use of my film poster analysis worksheet posted in lesson 20).
Post your completed products as JPEGs as the final item on each of your Ancillary Task pages.

Lesson 23 - 17th March
In today's lesson you will answer the following questions;
- How successful are my draft Ancillary Products?
- What improvements can I make to improve my mark?
During today's lesson you Ancillary Products will be self & peer-assessed using the following success criteria;
You must record the feedback you receive and respond to in appropriately. This must all be presented on your blog.
You will have just over a week to make the improvements identified and to replace Lorem Ipsum with register-appropriate copy. The deadline for final versions of your print products is 3.30pm on 27th March (including all Ancillary Task R&P evidence).
