My opinion on learning in media
The learning style in media is very different to other subjects, it relies on group learning and so far I have really enjoyed this aspect of the subject. I enjoy the more practical lessons but I know they can't be done all the time. I have found my favourite thing in media is when we are set a project to do in lesson, and I would like to see more of this in lessons. However I think we need to do some more on the facts and figures aspect of the essay
