Key ideas
Follow a complex argument on a world issue independently.
Organize a full argument: thesis -> developed reasons -> nuance -> conclusion.
Catch the full range of tenses and moods, including the productive subjonctif.
Use all tenses and moods, including a productive subjonctif and the conditionnel.
Subjonctif after expressions of doubt, will and concession: 'bien que ce soit', 'je doute que ce soit'.
Watch out for
- Treating 'bien que' with the indicative - it triggers the subjonctif ('soit', not 'est').
- Using 'il est essentiel que + indicatif' - the subjonctif is required ('agisse', not 'agit').
- Losing the thread when the speaker shifts mood or time.

Key ideas
Run the whole process independently: plan -> draft -> revise -> edit.

Peer-revise: give and use specific feedback on a partner's text.

Watch out for
- Editing language before the argument is organized - revise ideas first.
- Giving vague peer feedback ('c'est bien') instead of specific suggestions.
- Arguing one side only - a persuasive text answers the counter-view.
