This document provides a detailed deconstruction and analysis of three different double page spreads from magazines. It summarizes the key elements and layout of each spread, including the use of images, text, captions, and color schemes. The spreads come from magazines focused on TV and satellite programming as well as radio, and feature articles on behind-the-scenes looks at television shows and an interview. Overall, the document examines the conventions and techniques used across the different spreads to effectively convey information to readers.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. This double page spread is taken from TV & Satellite magazine which is produced weekly, this particular article is
based on a drama series ‘Being Human’ and what happens behind the scenes, similar to the Doctor Who article.
The layout is fairly simple and the article covers both pages, it is made up of both visual written text and images, yet
the image is more prominent than the text. The article has a box in the top left corner stating it is a ‘cover story’,
this means this article has been featured on the front of the magazine and therefore must be special or important
to this weeks edition. The main image is technically the background and all characters have been placed into the
middle of the frame, as if they are making eye contact with the reader. To the right of the page there is a filler story
which covers a different subject than the main article on the left hence the splitting of the text. The layout of the
double page spread is fairly clear and allows easy navigation around the page, this is done by clear page numbers in
the bottom corners of the pages and the use of contrasting colours. Unlike the previous deconstruction, this colour
scheme is red, yellow and white. Similarly these colours are also very contrasting, which allows easy navigation and
reading of the text.
3. There are in total three images on the double page, yet the background of the article is also the main
image and therefore the main focus. The main image involves all of the supposed important characters of
the drama, with all facing and making ‘eye contact’ with the reader. This is a way of drawing in the reader
and allows each individual to stand out against one another as the image is so clear. Each character has a
caption beside them stating the characters name, the actors name and their purpose in the drama, this
gives further insight into what the series is about and how each character is developed. The other two
smaller images are beside the filler story, although still about the drama, the filler story focuses on two
famous actors joining the drama and the characters they will play. The two images are of Lacey Turner
and Robson Green both are accompanied by a captions stating who their character will be, soon to be
introduced into the series.
4. The text is spread out onto both pages, the filler story on the right introduces the new characters Lacey
Turner and Robson Green and their roles. The text box of the story is in yellow and the description is in a
simple black font, the title ‘Lacey in Limbo’ Is a use of alliteration is stylistic and gives an edgy feel to the
article, it also makes the reader want to watch the programme to find out what is happening to Lacey
and her character. The captions have a constant colour scheme in the text box being white and the
description in a small black font. However in the captions for the main image; the character and actors
name is in white against a red text box. This allows the character and their description to stand out
against one another making it clear to read and understand. In addition, the text box in the bottom right
corner is also in a bold simple white font against a red text box; ‘In this world, anything can happen. We
could all die and come back tomorrow‘ this is foreshadowing the drama, initiating that this is actually
what the programme is about. The Important information covering times, dates and the channel the
drama will be shown is placed just below the subtitle in a yellow and red text box ensuring it stands out
against the rest of the written text and images as it is important information for the reader. The main
article itself is white, in order to contrast with the dark brown and black shadow of the image behind it.
The title is fairly large and in two colours, yellow and white. In addition to this, the ‘reunited’ is italics to
emphasise that there is some sort of drama about to happen with the characters.

6. This double page spread is an article on ‘behind the scenes of the new Doctor Who’ programme. Images
and photographs of the scenes take up the majority of the double page with a short amount of written text
including captions beneath the images. The images, bar one all are placed in the centre or right half of the
pages with the text either beside or underneath images as captions and the written part of the article on
the left bottom side beside an image of the new ‘Doctor’. The layout, is fairly simple with enough text and
information to inform readers or Doctor Who lovers on what goes on behind the scenes when filming and
offers a few sneak peaks. The colour scheme is red, black and white: these colours are typical when
attempting to have information and images stand out against one another. The red has been used for the
caption titles and the beginning of the sentence to inform the reader the article is from ‘behind the scenes’
. The white is for the main title ‘New Who’ and the black for the remaining text. The background being
white allows the images to also stand out, as it gives the appearance that the smaller images have a border.
7. As previously mentioned the double page spread is heavily focused on images, they take up around
80% of the page. As the article is about a TV programme the editor has made the focus visual, as a TV
programme would be but has provided enough written information for the reader to skim through. The
main image itself is a long shot of the Doctor, his companion and the ‘Women in Black’ character on
set, with the iconic blue police box and the cliff face which gives the reader an insight into where this
scene is, this image also overlaps onto the second page. Beside this down the right page there are four
alternative sized images of different times behind the scenes. Each are accompanied by a caption
informing the reader about what is going on in each image. This double page out of the three I have
deconstructed is the one with the most ‘going on’. There are a lot of areas with spots of text and
images with captions. Having a lot on a page allows the reader to navigate around and read different
aspects, like the ‘Being Humans’ article, that provided us with a filler story and not just one article (E.G
the Doctor Who interview). Depending on the audience having more text than images may work in
your favour.

9. This double page spread has been taken from Radio Times, based on an exclusive interview with David
Tennant about his role being the Doctor in Doctor Who. The layout, in comparison to the previous two
deconstructions is fairly different. The other two have been produced by TV & Satellite, whereas this one
has been produced by Radio Times and therefore the layout would be different. The double page is 50%
image and 50% text, with an equal amount of written and visual text the page looks clean, easy to
understand and separates the sections. There is only one image on this spread, compared to the last two
which included smaller images accompanied by captions, the image on the left page is of David Tennant,
the main character and the main focus of the article. However, as there is an equal amount of text to
images it allows the readers eyes to be focused between the two and not solely on the image or the
written text. There is a lot less going on in this article in relation to the other two. This may be down to
the article purely being an interview with one character and not an overview of being behind the scenes,
therefore the editor can condense the information given. Similarly to the other articles, there is a page
number, a heading and a sub heading. Those are typical conventions of a double page spread.
10. The main colour scheme for the article is red, white and black as these colours contrast one another and
create a very simplistic, clean look. The written text on the right hand page is in the typical three column
article style, a convention of a double page spread also. The background being white and the majority of
the text being black allows contrast which therefore makes the page clear as the text is equally spread.
The article uses a pull quote which has been placed in the centre of the right page, a convention of a
double page spread. This deconstruction appears to use several more conventions, however this could be
as it has been taken from a different magazine. There is a red text box with white text ‘RT Exclusive’ this
indicates that the interview is a one off and only for Radio Times magazine, a way to persuade a customer
to buy their magazine. In the top right corner there is a date, time and channel for the next Radio Times
interview, this is promoting and giving further information to the reader. Overall the whole look on the
page is spread out consistently and all information has been placed where it can be visually seen and easy
to read. Although different to the previous deconstructions, they all show conventions of a double page
spread which I can then apply to my ancillary task.
