I'm not trained to teach Media, but have always fancied having a bash at it. Careful what you wish for. Suddenly I have an entire GCSE curriculum to plan, with only the most random of badly photocopied resources tangentially relevant to particularly unhelpful colleagues' pet project. Thanks a bunch.
But it's exciting, in a mild manner, to be learning something new. I'm going to post this as an aide memoire to myself on the few days I haul myself from the large piles of novels I have waiting. But also in case anyone reading is in a similar position: here, largely thanks to the ever helpful Boyhowdy, are several Media links that have been fascinating to explore. Even to a lay consumer like me.
