The document discusses the target audience for a media product. It analyzes demographics like age (15-34), social class (D and E), psychographics (explores and aspires), gender (mainly female), and ethnicity (all backgrounds). Research like a questionnaire and focus group helped determine preferences and informed the choices. The target audience falls into lower social grades due to education levels, and within the explores and aspires psychographic categories due to their adventurous and achievement-driven mindsets. Females are the primary focus as they go to movies more often. The content aimed to appeal to this youthful demographic.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Question 4 : Who would be the audience for your media product
1. QUESTION 4 ; WHO
WOULD BE THE
AUDIENCE FOR
YOUR MEDIA
PRODUCT
Natalia Wilson-Davis
2. CLASS AND THE JINCAR SCALE.
Initially I wanted my target audience to fall into the age bracket of 16-25 , but
however changed this as my audience research showed that 15-34 year olds visit
the cinema the most and due to this many of those individuals that fall into the age
bracket are still in full time education including secondary school , college and
university and therefore are displayed as D or E on the jincar scale as many of
them have no income as for a majority of these individuals it is difficult to maintain
educational success and balance a job . The social grades of D and E relate to
those at the lowest and the lower class this is of course due to the idea that
majority of the youth don’t have occupations that will provide them with income.
The social grade of
E and D are were
majority of my
target audience fall
among.
3. PSYCHOGRAPHIC PROFILING
My target audience fall into explores and aspires within the psychographic profiling
scale. My reason for targeting my audience at explores is due to the idea that they
take an interest in seeking discovery and being adventurous and therefore
heightens the advantage to my film product as the characteristics of explores
loving to experience new and current things refer to the fact that they may then
instantly be drawn to go and watch my film product in cinemas which could
increase attention of my film via word of mouth or social networking sites as my
young target audience keep up with the latest and advanced technologies and
social medias.
Also aspires fall into the target demographic as they are the ones who strive to
achieve the best possible and I believe that those who are in still full time education
or even in an occupation are determined to increase their success whether
educational or promotional fall in to the aspires category and all of this hard work to
achieve a higher status can be released by these individuals going to the cinema to
relief some the stress or extra weight by the adrenaline of my thriller movie assisting
to discourage the stress.
4. PSYCHOGRAPHIC PROFILING
Also aspires seek status and therefore due to the fact that
my film product which is called ‘Unknown’ falls into the
genre of a thriller/horror this may drive them to go to the
cinema to watch it to prove that they are courageous
enough giving them status and in reverse not someone
who is delicate and powerless. Also thriller films have
become a big trend among young people as within their
leisure time they go to the cinemas with a group of peers to
see if the fear factor of a thriller will affect them or not and
this popular trend will be accepted by aspires as they follow
major current trends
5. AGE GROUP:
Initially I wanted my audience to range from 16-25 to easily be able to connect to
the main characters in my film product as they also fall into the same age bracket.
However due to my audience research I quickly found that those aged between 15-
34 were the age group in which visit the cinema the most and therefore knew that I
would have to target it at a wider age range so that my film product would gain as
much popularity and attention as possible also this choice of targeting my film
product at 15-34 instead of a smaller a younger age range was made with ease as
both the main characters fall within this age bracket which would still allow the
characters and audience to still easily connect.
Also Due to the tragic and horrific content within thrillers I had to take in to
consideration the age certificate in which would be allocated to my film. Horrors
and thrillers age certificate vary between 15 and 18 and due to the fact there is no
extremely traumatising events, no foul language and sexual content I then came to
the conclusion my film product would a 15 which perfectly fell into my target
audience age group.
The certificate I allocated to my film after considering the
content of my film. In terms of horror and thrillers At 15 there
can be strong threat and horror as long as there is no
sustained focus on sadistic or sexualised threat.
Displayed in my research
found from pearl and dean
it showed me that the most
popular age range to go to
cinema is those aged 15-
24.
6. AGE GROUP.
Also the lower proportion of the target age group are going through adolescence
and usually testing boundaries as they go through a quiet disobedient age therefore
take on a rebellious attitude by staying out late with peers and watching films with
such terror which add to the thrill as part of the rebellious phase, however those in the
higher proportion of my target audience (21-34) will also enjoy the thrill of my thriller
film as they are more experienced in watching such films and therefore anticipate to
see what my film product has to offer.
I also thought to target my audience at 15-34 year olds as I fall within this particular
age group and therefore know what will appeal to this youthful age range making it
easier to attract my target audience also people aged around the same age as me
answered the questionnaire allowing me to input on decisions this came about as I
was the mise-en-scene person of my group and therefore ensured that I made
convenient and important decisions to try to appeal to those in this age group. An
example of this was through costume decisions as I made sure both the main
characters had trendy and stylish clothing from high end fashionable shops such as
River Island and new look (popular places in which a lot of young people shop.)
7. RACE.
As my main characters are white British and white Hispanic, this
does not mean that my target audience is white as I believe that
those of any ethnical background may want to watch this film and
also due to research of the questionnaires it showed me that no
ethnical minorities were significantly popular to one another but
overall all ethnicities were equal allowing me to then target all
ethnic backgrounds.
8. GENDER:
My target audience for my film product will be mainly females however may attract
males. Females are my main focus in terms of gender for my film as both the main
characters are female and therefore will be drawn to their fashion sense but also will
empathise with the protagonist of the film as females are usually seen as more
sensitive and due to this will quickly connect with the main character as they will then
gain an emotional connection driving them to empathise with the protagonist whilst in
danger. Although my main target audience will be the females, males also are a part
of my target audience as they themselves are the ones who are seen as more
courageous and therefore will be the ones to go and watch horror films.
Male gaze theory: (Laura Mulveys) the male gaze theory refers to the way the male
individuals look at females as more of a sexual object due to their appearance.
Presented in my film are the main characters that fit typical conventions such as white
females with blonde / brown long hair and blue and grey eyes which are seen as
conventionally beautiful and therefore my result in male audiences watching for the
purpose of ‘gazing’ and looking at the female characters.
Lastly due to my audience research I have seen that females are the ones to go to
the cinema more and this heightened my reasons for targeting my audience to
females.
From research I learnt that the gender
in which visits the cinema the most are
females , then driving me to help
establish my target audience to
females,
9. INTERESTS OF MY TARGET AUDIENCE.
Outings with peers
Finding out celebrity gossip
Follow a soap or drama such as EastEnders and
Breaking bad.
Attending festivals / Concerts
Buying and keeping up with the latest fashion trends
Cinema outings
Listening and keeping up with popular music
A lot of time spent on social networking sites
Shop in very fashionable and trendy shops such as
Topshop ,new look and River Island
10. USES AND GRATIFICATIONS
Escapism:
Due to my target audience being of a young age group
and generally going through the stress of GSCSE, A levels,
university or being newly employed and may want a way to
escape this and therefore will spend their time with their
peers going out for a fun and entertaining time as a way of
relieving and escaping the stress. Overall as my target
audience want relief they will then go to the cinema as way
of escaping the negativity and stress.
11. RESEARCH: During the process of research I carried out audience research, a focus group and a
questionnaire in order to heighten and build knowledge about my potentially target
audience and to ensue their needs were catered for.
Audience research: from my audience research it displayed to me that the most
popular age group ranged between 15-34 which then helped me to decided on my
target audience. Also displayed that females are the ones that visit the cinema the
most and this also helped me to consider the fact that by making them my main
audience will result in film gaining a high income. And also that those of a higher
social class visit the cinema more than those of a lower social class this maybe due to
the fact those in a higher social class are in a higher profession. Majority of this
research was taken from pearl and dean.
Questionnaire: the questionnaire in tailed ideas about ethnicity, age, gender and
preferred genres. The results of ethnicity displayed a range of different races therefore
explaining that I could target my audience at a range of different ethnic
backgrounds. The age group results from my questionnaire displayed a youthful age
group ranging from 15-20 , this helped me broaden my ideas about choosing the
main age group I would target however later stretched to those who are slightly older
due to other audience research. Also helped me develop ideas about what gender I
would target my product to and with significant figures found that it was females who
visit the cinema the most. Lastly I found that horror was the most popular genre and
from this helped me consider a number of different factors to take into account such
as making sure there wasn’t particular language used and other things that would
effect the gender, age or ethnicity of my target audience.
Focus group: we then had a focus group which mainly looked at what they wanted to
see within a horror film which generally helped me to understand what type of horror
film I would need to produce taking in to account the types of location, sound and
many other factors which when then help me base these choices around the needs
of my target audience.
