1. Understanding the WJEC Media Unit Test | 理解 WJEC 媒体单元测试
The IGCSE Media Studies unit test usually assesses three central concepts: media language, representation, and audience and institution contexts.
IGCSE 媒体研究单元测试通常考查三个核心概念:媒介语言、表征、受众与机构语境。
Assessment objectives include AO1, which tests knowledge and recall of terms; AO2, which tests application of media concepts to products; and AO3, which tests analysis and evaluation of meaning and effect.
评估目标包括 AO1 考查术语识记;AO2 考查将媒介概念应用于产品;AO3 考查对意义与效果的分析和评价。
Common command words you will meet are identify, explain, analyse, compare and evaluate. You should check the mark allocation before writing, because explain is different from evaluate in depth.
你会遇到的常见指令词包括 identify、explain、analyse、compare 和 evaluate。动笔前应看清分值,因为 explain 与 evaluate 所要求的深度不同。

示例第 1 题(8 分): 观察能量饮料 ‘Frost Bite’ 的平面广告。一名少年滑板手跃过夜晚城市天际线。画面以蓝银色调为主,标语为 ‘Own the Freeze’。指出两个视觉符号并解释其效果。
- Use semiotic language: signifier, signified, denotation, connotation, anchorage.
- 使用符号学语言:能指、所指、外延、内涵、锚定。
- Explain how codes work together to sell the product, not just what you see.
