Kompetenzerweiterung III, Tuesday Group, Homework for November 27th

** There is no class on November 13th or on November 20th (project week). I will be giving a lecture in the Dienstagskonferenz series in the interpreters' classroom during our usual class time. You are more than welcome to attend! **

For homework, please start thinking about what you would like to do for your prepared debate question for the exam. Do some initial research for argumentation and examples from videos and articles. http://www.statista.com can be useful for quantitative data. The New York Times "Room for Debate" page might also help you narrow down a topic: https://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate

Have a look at the "glass-ceiling index" article and the Graphs at the bottom of the page: https://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicdetail/2018/02/daily-chart-10
Write at least five sentences in which you compare countries' rankings in the subcategories.

Finally, select an infographic of choice from the graphic detail website and 1) identify good vocab in the text and 2) write at least 10 sentences of analysis about the graph(s) featured in the article: https://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicdetail
