What you have to do
Research your allocated regulatory body (OFCOM, BBFC, PEGI, ASA) and prepare a class presentation (in Prezi) with a handout for the other students.
You must research their
- History (Timeline of key events)
- Purpose
- Effectiveness
- Key Case Studies in its history (including relevant video footage)
Your presentation must answer the following questions:
- What are the origins of the regulator and why was it brought in?
- What are it's aims - how have these changed and why?
- What regulatory practice does it take and how does it make it's decisions?
- What are the arguments for and against its form of regulation?
- How effective is the body? (Pros and Cons plus conclusion)
You must also apply the terminology we have been learning
- Statutory or Self-regulation
- Pro-active or Reactive
Presentations will be next Tuesday - they will be video'd for revision purposes
This will be FSA 3.2
