BTEC Tech Award in Creative Media Productions- Student Guide

A guide to BTEC Tech Award in Creative Media Productions Component 1 and 2.

The perfect guide to completing Component 1& 2 of the BTEC Tech Award in Creative Media Productions. This scheme of work is designed to help support students when completing the ‘Re-Imagine’ authorised brief from the exam board. As well as the 'Exploring Media Products’ authorised brief from the exam board. Each lesson is planned for 75 minute lessons (55 teaching hours approx). However, can easily be adapted or extended further. The lessons support students with all of the tasks needed to complete the component. There are a variety of teacher led activities, active learning tasks with all differentiated to stretch and challenge the higher ability students and support the lower candidates. I use the lessons as half teacher led and second half Workshops and active learning. The Student Guide- My Students have found this student guide to be extremely useful. The 10 page document includes: An extensive checklist which breaks down the 3 tasks into a checklist which corresponds with the Scheme of Work included. The Checklist is designed to be interactive where students are encouraged to makes notes and set targets (self/peer/teacher). There is also a clear breakdown of each task with assessment criteria attached.
