More ATSS Teacher Support Material

Thanks to the very useful online file converter Zamzar I was able to convert one of the old ATSS support booklets from it’s original Microsoft Publisher .pub format to a more-friendly and easily-edited Word format.

This booklet illustrates the concept of News Values and is based around the question of “Who creates the news?”. The material uses a mix of instruction and activities to encourage students to explore areas like:

• Editorial Decision Making
• Marxism and the Control of the News
• Pluralism and the Media Investigated
• How Representative is the British Media?
