Kompetenzerweiterung III (Tuesday Group), Homework for November 9th

  For homework, please prepare the following: 

- read the long-read featured under the file "Cohousing" on Ilias and identify what you consider to be the author's best arguments in favor of co-housing/co-living. Imagine how you would counter these points were you to have a debate with her. 

- read the file "Stress in compound adjs and abbreviations" and do exercise 17.2 from the "Stress in compound adjs and abbreviations exercises" file.

- read the file "Should seasonal clock changes be abolished" and come up with details from your own experience with daylight saving to support BOTH arguments.

- watch this 1-minute video from the Brooklyn Public Library about their new policy on fines: Say Goodbye to Late Fines! | Brooklyn Public Library - YouTube  Would you favor such a change to your local library's fine policy? Why or why not?

Make sure you're prepared to debate the following questions in next week's class:

1. Are co-housing/co-living the future?

2. Should seasonal clock changes be abolished?

3. Should more libraries adopt the Brooklyn Public Library's approach to fines? (Watch the quick video above.)
