Please write a report on the following topic:
Media Literacy among Children and Teenagers in the modern Commercial Environment
Report – 5%
Content – 5%
A report is a little like an essay, but is presented in a different way. It has very specific sections which are listed below in this document in the section called “Structuring Business Reports”. For the report you will be graded according to the criteria on the pages headed “Grading Sheet for Report Submitted to Valerie Gannon”.
For the contents you can decide what the important sections are in this report but it has to cover what the title indicates. You need to use at least 8 sources – Woods (2012) plus at least 3 from among the references marked with *Essential Reading; and at least 4 more from among the other 23 references below those (all of these 23 are short).
This assessment should be 3,000 words long. It must be submitted at the start of class on Wednesday March 11th. It should be completed in the same groups as for the presentation. It must be signed in by all group members on the day. Group work will be covered in the relevant sessions during February.
