Kies 1 van de onderwerpen op blz. 1. Wil je zelf een onderwerp bedenken? Overleg eerst met mij voordat je verder gaat!
Maak een plan voor je essay. Je schrijft dus nog niet het hele essay. Op dit moment maak je alleen een indeling. Bedenk alvast hoe je je essay gaat introduceren, welke argumenten je gaat bespreken en wat jouw mening is.
Lever je werk aan het eind van de les in via Magister Opdrachten.
