Evaluation Guide and Mark Scheme



  1. Candidates will evaluate their work digitally. Where candidates have worked in a group, the evaluation may be presented individually or collectively but the teacher must allocate a mark according to the contribution/level of understanding demonstrated by the individual candidate. Each candidate should give a clear indication of their role in any group evaluation. 

    The questions that must be addressed in the evaluation are: 
    • In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? 
    • How does your media product represent particular social groups? 
    • What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why? 
    • Who would be the audience for your media product? 
    • How did you attract/address your audience? 
    • What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product? 
    • Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product? 



      1. Level 3 12–15 marks
