    3**. Kurssin suunnittelua: This course will touch on several different themes. Here are the themes we have planned us to practise and discuss during the course. Please think about these questions:

    • What do you think about the themes?
    • Are some themes more important, for you, than some others?
    • Can you think of some interesting themes which are missing on the list?

    Can you come up with some examples of (concrete) situations/topics that would fall into these categories? Please write down your ideas under each theme. If someone else has already written a topic you also find important, you can "like" it or add your comment.
