Speech Package & Cue Sheet

Speech Package

Finally after preparing for my speech package coming up with different idea's amd looking up information and doing different VOX Pops here is my Radio show Hope you enjoy.





After I had done my speech Package my final Paper work was to do my cue sheet which was quite easy so here is my cue sheet

Secondary Research

When putting together my speech package I had to make sure I had primary and secondary research i first did my primary which was different vox pops I then moved on to secondary to put together my university speech package I decided to get advice for different people and tips of what to do in university so what I got was:

  • Learning Styles
  • Coursework or Exams
  • Money Problems
  • how to choose the right university
  • Different loans and grants
  • For those not going to university

Choosing a University

Finding a perfect university can be difficult with over 150 universities and higher education colleges around the UK with a range of different of course for you to choose from what you need to consider for yourself is:
  • Do you want the best course or one that is quite good but offers the options you really want?
  • Do you want the ideal work placement or the course with the least continuous assessment?
  •  It is all a matter of priorities which you feel are important for you, after all you will be the one who has to study on the course and you may be living there for over three years or more.


When you choose a university think of the subject and course type this will narrow down the number of possibilities at different universities to a few.
  • If you want to study veterinary science, there are less than ten places you can go in the UK.
  • If you want to study Burmese, there is only one (it's SOAS, the School of Oriental and African Studies).
  • For many, though, particularly if you are interested in one of the major subjects such as English, chemistry, law or mechanical engineering, there may be 30 or more similar courses so do your homework.

If you want to change your course it will cost a lot and it can be difficult to find another university that will take you on and to tell your parents and friends.  Research into why you want to leave your current university and change on to another university thinks about the factors leaving your early.

 The part in green is advice on how to choose the right the university i used this website http://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/universities/choosing-the-right-university/ to help my give  advice on how to help you choose the right university.


VOX pop –Kevin

Think about the learning and assessment style

  • ·      Do you do better in exams or would you rather do course work for the whole year.
  • ·      Do you prefer to be in lectures or seminars, study at home or in the library?
  • ·      Work placement?


Best thing to do is ask yourself that can help you make better decision about your course and for yourself and to help you choose whether the course style is for you there can be big difference in how the courses are taught and structured.

Key information for you is that you look on university websites and on the ucas website spend time thinking of the right choice for you and think about the time you’ll spend in lectures and seminars and how you study independently. Also do yourself a breakdown of how you can assess yourself or how you’ll be assessed each year for the course in written exams coursework and practical’s.

I got most of this research from this website http://www2.le.ac.uk/offices/ssds/accessability/staff/including-students-with-asperger-syndrome/theoretical-perspectives/the-triad-2/thinking-and-learning-style but the rest i put into my own words from my own experience thinking about about different learning.

VOX pop –Beth

What help can I get?

Tuition Fee Loans
Loans are from student finance companies from different regions in the UK – England, Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland. These organisations are listed below.
How much can I borrow?
You can take out a Tuition Fee Loan for up to £9,000, rather than paying up front or up to £6,000 for a private university or college.
This loan will be paid directly to your university; you won't start paying it back until after your course finishes, and only when you're earning above a certain level which now a days is a round £21,000.

Maintenance Loans and Grants
If you're a full-time UK applicant, you might also get a Maintenance Loan or Maintenance Grant to help with your living costs – you can apply for these when you apply for a Tuition Fee Loan.
Maintenance Loan – you have to pay these back later. You get money at the start of each term (or monthly if you study in Scotland). The amount varies, depending on your household income, where you study, where you live and how long for.
Maintenance Grant – you don't have to pay these back – they're available if you're from a low income household. They're paid at the same time as the Maintenance Loan (and they're called bursaries in Scotland or Assembly Learning Grants in Wales).

I used this http://www.theunipod.com/surviving-university/student-finance/student-finance-how-much-can-i-borrow above to write the stuff in red and put it in my own words so that people know what student finance and what uni loans are.

For those not going

Retail management traineeships
there are different things to do after college for those not going to university there are offer graduate-style manager traineeships that take between two and three years to complete. You can expect to spend time at head office and on the shop floor - and there may be a chance to obtain a professional qualification, in marketing or accounting.
Apprenticeships
there are also apprenticeships for anyone considering an apprenticeship scheme needs to look at pay carefully most don't pay well and some pay appalling badly they do offer the opportunity to get into the industry of your choice.
Open University
instead of doing a full time course you could do commitments like childcare or work, there's also the option to study from home with the Open University. They offer a surprising number of highly-regarded courses and you can take them in modular form - working towards credits as time and circumstances allow.
Take a gap year
for those who do want to go to university but don’t know what they want to do or what to do some paid work experience in this country or abroad take a year off Uni before. The charity 'A Year in Industry' offers paid work experience for 9-12 months, to help give young people away in to a permanent job. You'll find placements in engineering, science, IT, e-commerce, business, marketing, finance and logistics.

The part in orange is advice people not going to university and I used this website http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2013/08/21/alternatives-to-university-your-options_n_3788944.html and this tell people the other alternatives of not going to university and what you can do after college.

Finally these have been my advice for going to and not going to university enjoy.

Research- Primary

For my Speech Package I was asked to do some primary and secondary research so I started doing some vox pops for my speech packages one for me to ask a member of staff and the other to ask students if they're going to university.

These are the questions sheets that I used to ask people questions to create my vox pops.

Radio in the UK




Radio in the UK has a large number of listeners; there are around 600 licensed radio stations.
 
Public Radio
In commercial Radio there are 3 main national channels which are Absolute Radio, classic FM and talk SPORT. With BBC there has been digital Radio brought in and made many changes this is included in the roll-out of local Stations such as Xfm, Kiss 100 and Kerrang Radio in the United Kingdom.
Commercial Radio Licenses come from Ofcom which is a Government body which advertises a license in a local area and holds a beauty contest. When trying to get a License off Ofcom they hand in a detailed application containing a proposed format and outcome of research to determine the demand for their particular style of broadcast, the last radio station to get a license from them was Original 106 (Aberdeen).
Most local radio station in the UK broadcast to different cities or groups of towns with a radius of 20-50 miles, the predominant format is pop music, but there are many different other tastes that are catered for different areas and for different digital Radio’s.
Rather than operating different Independent entities, many different radio stations are owned by larger radio companies which broadcast to similar areas, the largest radio company is Global radio which was brought by the former media group Gcap Media, this group owns Classic FM and London’s most popular station 95.8 Capital FM, other groups are Bauer radio and UTV Radio.
Community Radio
In the smaller areas of the UK normally with in the 3-5 mile radius there are not profit organisations, owned by the local people which are different volunteers,  they are recognized by the community radio movement in the UK which was founded in the mid-1970s.
In the Local Area Middlesbrough we have our Local radio station Community Voice FM, this is not profit organisation that operates in the local area of Middlesbrough in the Teesside Area, and they started broadcasting in august 2009 and aim to serve the population and the surrounding areas.
