Key Terms

Dear Yr 10,

Below are the key terms from today's lesson. Make sure you learn and understand what they mean. 

Representation
This refers to the way people, places, events or ideas are portyrayed to audiences in media texts. Sometimes this is simplistically through the use of familiar stereotypes so the audience can see immediately what is meant and sometimes the meanings are less obvious. 

Stereotyping
This refers to the way people are grouped together according to simple shared characteristics,without allowing for individual uniqueness.
