    • Summaries Assignment

      Write a short (max. one page) summary of the argument of the article that you chose to read. Work with an online text and make your entry before the session; do not submit separate files for each summary. Be prepared to discuss your findings in the classroom. You can revise your summary after the each session, if your thoughts on the subject change in the course of discussions and presentations. Later your summaries will be of help when you write your essay.

      You can, for example, think about the following: What are the central arguments of the article? Are the arguments convincing? Do you agree with the author(s)? If you were a planner, would you find the article useful?
