We obviously haven't started looking at the 'Media in the Online Age' question of the A2 exam as, well, it is a year away. But here is an interesting article. Read, independently. The more independent knowledge you can get about how the internet impacts on the main platforms the better your answer.
Rather than sending in a load of candidates who write the same thing, I like to send in candidates who write different things, because they've approached the course with intelligence and open-mindedness and developed the skills we're meant to be developing in you. Imagine you're an examiner who has read 60 answers near identical and then they get yours. Not a single one the same, not even close. You smile. You think 'someone's actually wanting to do this properly rather than filling them up to scrape the marks' and, lo and behold, the marks come flowing in. Or, if they don't, in rare cases this does happen, it is an accurate reflection of the grade you should have got.
ReplyDeleteThe paradiddle can be used to form a funky linear drum groove.
Play your right hand on your hi hat and keep the left hand on
the snare drum (maintaining the accent positions as written above).
If you are accenting the notes correctly you should hear a funky
groove. Take the initiative to add some bass drum patterns and
experiment with this highly versatile rudiment.
