New Macguffin Forum

For all Year 12 & 13 students...

Exciting news - there is now a Macguffin forum where you can discuss and debate all manner of topics to do with the media. You can link to it from the previous sentence or from the sidebar to the left of this message.

Your tasks this week (to be completed before Monday 07-11-05) are:

• Register on the forum by clicking on the 'register' link below the 'Macguffin' title

• So that you can be identified by us, your username must be in the following format - initial.surname (e.g. Your teachers would be 'A.Bush' or 'G.Munro', except that I am down as 'macguffin' because I'm the administrator)

• Make sure that you include your current email address and note down your password somewhere safe

• If you wish to include any of the other info then please do but it's not compulsory

• Leave the preferences section as it is

• Reply to the first discussion topic relevant to you...

Both discussions require you to do some reading from 'The Guardian' website first of all - links are provided above and in the first post. Always print off articles that are suggested here so that you can store them in your media files for revision. And, remember, you must write in standard English with correct spelling, please!!
