  8. Key Learning Note • A key learning note is not a summary of the content of the article. It includes your reflections on the text; on the things that you found particularly interesting or puzzling. • What did you learn from the text? You should reflect on your personal perceptions and interpretations of the presented argument. • Do you agree or disagree with the authors’ arguments, and why? Your text needs to be structured in a systematic manner, not presented as checkpoints. • At least, reflect upon the following questions (do not use them as headdings!): • What are the researchers basically debating about? • Whose views do you agree with, and why? • Maximum length per KLN: 1000 words • You are to write one KLN per article and/or chapter, i.e if you are assigned 5 articles + 2 chapters it means 7 KLNs
