Use item 1 to revise the range of music topics for example Music Magazines remembering that you may be expected to compare and contrast unseen magazine with MOJO. Knowing how a magazine works with its target audience will help you with that. The link below will help you to understand what makes a good magazine.

What makes a good magazine – click to find out

https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zcpgdmn/revision/2

The magazine you must study is Music Magazine MOJO

Click on the link to check out the magazine But you do need to also reference the hard copy magazine example which should feature in some form on your exam paper – possibly with an example of an unseen magazine for you to compare and contrast.

https://www.mojo4music.com/

Secondly, you should revise the Music Videos. Just type the titles into your web browser to view the case study videos. DO NOT DISCUSS OTHER MUSIC VIDEOS BY THE SAME ARTISTS OR OTHER ARTISTS.

The Music Videos you must study are

Paloma Faith – Picking up the pieces

Compared and contrasted with

Tinie Tempah ft Jess Glynne – Not Letting Go

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01029mq

Step 2 – Do the music questions from the exam paper. Item 2 .

Finally, do the Music questions on the exam paper. Use the mark scheme to self mark. Write your justification for marks as you progress your marking through the paper.

A sample exam paper and mark scheme is included as Item 3. Focus on the Music question’s – read the questions and check out the mark scheme. Use the mark scheme to put a grade and if you can scan the marked paper to p.carpenter@ecaterham.net I will give you feedback to improve.

Step 3 – Item 3

Higher level candidates particularly should look at the resource that guides you through how to give good references. Referencing is a high-level marker though all candidates should constantly reference to show wider knowledge and understanding.
