We had to think about related questions for my critical investigation:
An exploration into moral panics represented in child abuse campaigns, how do the three media platforms overcome this?
CLASS VIEWS.
Extra question: An exploration into how moral panics are created through the representation of child abuse campaigns and in what ways do the three media platforms convey this? are there positives and negative?
Extra questions: An exploration into moral panics created in child abuse and campaigns. Do the three media platforms over come this, and how successful are they doing so?
- The add on to it suggests they may not overcome the moral panics or may only do it partially.
Child abuse
Patriarchy.
Male and female. - who's in power?
- Who abuses the children male domination or females who are in charge
Media theories.
Look into Gaye Tuchman
Hegemonic - Marxist theory
Postmodernism - 18th 19th 20th Century - technology improved dominant power
Media Texts.
Looking through magazines
T.V
Internet and reviews.
S.H.E.P
Social: why do people in society fall for child abuse campaigns? - they don't research, they only assume that their money is going to children who are being abused.
Historical: Child abuse campaigns have been going on for many years, why have they broadened their advertising methods to the other platforms : have they become more explicit? if so why?
PERSONAL REVIEW.
Having done todays lesson of assessing each others work in terms of adding comments, and different ideas has helped me to narrow down my ideas of questions i need to look at which will help me with my research, using the media theories linking to moral panic will help with my research and also looking at my question into more detail.
Having decided to use all three media platforms to help with my critical investigation i feel that i need to look at more websites such as NSPCC and Barnardo's using campaigns which already exist which will help with the process such as leaflets for research and information from news reports. I feel this lesson has really helped and i have enjoyed giving other people help with their work, having assessed many questions i am now able to narrow down a specific root id like to follow.
More research into:
- Stories related
- unacceptable stories
-stories which people appeal to
- children's true stories
-quotes - catch audience attention
- in-depth research into campaigns
- help to focus on best ways to present a campaign
- More theories
- maybe relate marxism or other theories
- More examples of S.H.E.P
- Examples of media text such as movies, news articles.
Thoughtful and well considered. Your topic is both interesting and clearly specific. Keep the question open enough that you don't have to conclude definitively.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to reading your research and seeing what texts you are planning to focus on and how you investigate them and the complex issue of how a moral panic is created in the mind of the audience - think about the role of news media in this.
