British magazines

For the week 3 discussion I wasn 't aware of the requirements of having to post three separate posts on three different days early in the week and ended up made all the posts in the same day. However, I have been able to make five posts throughout the day from 1:54 am to 10:36 pm. I made my stance clear on the first post that I made, "I believe that raising students ' self-esteem should not be the teachers ' responsibility" (week 3 discussion, May 29, 1:54am) and proceeded to argue for it. I referred to the textbook in some of my posts to support my ideas. For example, the quote "It is mentioned in the text that "the greatest increase in self-esteem come when students grow more competent in areas they value" (Woolfolk, Winne & Perry, p. 57. 2016)." (week 3 discussion, May 29, 1:54am) to support my claim that "teachers should encourage students to find ways to use their talents and let their unique characteristics shine through" (week 3 discussion, May 29, 1:54am). I responded to the posts of others by voicing out my concerns in regards to making raising self-esteem in students a mandatory responsibility for teachers, "I don 't think that giving out praises should become a mandatory part of a teacher 's job. A student 's self esteem shouldn 't be reliant on a teacher 's praises. Ultimately, students should learn to value their own works and efforts." (week 3 discussion, May 29, 2:27am). I raised questions to invoke further thoughts on the topic such as "How should we take each…

texts are everywhere and have a huge influence on people in distinct areas all over the world. In terms of fashion magazines, it is one of the most influential media texts that affect young females’ everyday life. It has been introduced to people for over a hundred years and it impacts them greatly on their fashion choices, lifestyle and the most importantly, their values (Bowerman, 2015). As one of the most popular magazines globally, Vogue was founded in 1892 by Arthur Turnure. The magazine’s…

To make an image be perfect or stand out in the crowd, a bit of photo manipulation needs to occur. Many people do not realize how significantly advertisements have changed the original image to sell their product. Glamour, a fashion magazine, conducted a survey about their readers’ opinions about advertisements with photoshopped images (Seigal 29). There were 1000 women who answered the survey. When the data was collected, the process of editing small areas of flawed skin, flyaway hair, and…

From 2011-2013, Seventeen Magazine, a popular teen/young adult magazine featured a host of popular female celebrities such as: Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Shaileene Woodley, Ariana Grande, as well as many other ABC family stars were featured wearing shirts with the word delete sprawled across them. The meaning behind these shirts and the whole campaign in general was to help spread awareness of cyberbullying as well as help combat it. The question I pose is, how affective/successful was this…

Every magazine has its own target audience. Out magazine, founded in 1992, is aimed towards the LGBT+ community. Like all magazines Out has a variety of advertisements featured in its pages, ranging from travel ads to leisure products (such as alcoholic beverages). However, unlike many magazines, Out advertises medication for a very specific virus – HIV. The deadly virus first became apparent in the United States in the 1980s among gay males and has since been prominent in the LGBT+ circles.…

Advertising in today’s society depends solely on marketing demographics. Appealing to the right demographic hugely affects what advertisements you see used in certain types of media. For instance, you’re not going to see an advertisement promoting men’s clothing in a magazine geared towards women, and you won’t find an ad promoting make-up in a magazine intended for men. Rolling stone, a pop culture magazine that mostly appeals to young and mature adults, retails for under $5, and is laid out…

The advertisements that I chose to examine and delve into was pulled from the magazine “Field and Stream”. The audience for the Field and Stream magazine encompasses a range consisting of young adult males to a more moderately aged male who enjoys hunting and fishing. Because of this audience, the colors have to automatically be hard and very aggressive. The two advertisements promote a new bullet that has come out. Advertisement A is Federal Premium’s new bullet called the “Trophy Bonded…

publications are deemed or dismissed as household names faster than ever. Paper Magazine, a relatively unknown magazine, niche at best put Kim Kardashian on the cover of its November 2014 issue. Kardashian, a cult product of 21st century’s obsession with fame and wealth, became a goddess whose buttocks held a champagne glass in front of the lens of famed photographer Jean-Paul Goude. Another cover saw Kardashian showcasing her bare buttocks, which are coming out of a fabric that resembles a…

Ebony Magazines feature articles concerning topic of attention to their subscribers: fashion, sports automobiles, hair products, politics, etc. The basis of such magazine, however, isn’t just fashion, automobiles, hair products, and politics; it is also the advertisements for cleaning supplies. It makes sense, for an advertisement in ebony magazine because Gain has been exceptionally successful with meeting, and understanding the needs of increasing populations of ethnic consumers, with the…

I studied a few women 's magazines Woman’s World, SHAPE, and First for Women. One of the magazines I read was First for Women one thing i noticed when i first picked up the magazine is the massive quick fix weight loss ads on the cover. Its draws a lot of attention from the readers since a lot of women are very self conscious about their health to pick…
