Thursday

So its Thursday again and that means I had Introduction to Study in Higher Education or ISHE for short.

Today we talked about News Broadcasting. Basically we discussed things like what different things in the opening sequence of BBC signify.

These are some points that we talked about in the lecture :

1 Conventions of news discourse (opening sequence)

2 Immediacy in TV news

3 Narrative functions of TV News

4 Visual signs in TV News (Bignall)5 Hegemony

After that we had a seminar where we watched some clips of BBC news and had to discuss some of the points that we talked about in the lecture.
