How to Read Newspaper, Magazine and Online Articles

Subjects / English / Media and Non-Fiction Texts

Price: £2.95 Duration: 28mins Full topic price: £10.95

In your English Language exam you will be asked to comment upon a non-fiction text. This can be a media text; meaning something from a newspaper, magazine, or from the internet; or a piece of information; perhaps an advertisement, an information leaflet or an extract from a biography. In this title, we will be looking at articles. These can be from newspapers, magazines or the internet, all of which are common in GCSE exam papers. We will discuss aspects of the above types of article and explore the techniques that writers use to entertain, inform, persuade and advise.
