Creative iMedia: Support for moderated units

To help you better prepare for success in the moderated units of Creative iMedia, we have a variety of resources available.  You can find all the key information here in one place.
 

The Specification

Creative iMedia Thumb

We have improved the guidance in our specification on pages 51 to 63 to clarify how much assistance you can give your students completing the set assignment of the moderated units.

As part of this, we’ve created three specific templates for you to give your students when they are creating: a storyboard, a test table, an asset table.


Referencing and Guidance Support Resources

To support your understanding of using referencing and the acceptable levels of guidance you can give your students, watch our guidance video, download the supporting document and join a free webinar in March. Also share our short best practice video with your students' and download a free classroom poster on referencing and plagiarism.
