Highly motivated and enthusiastic, you are in the middle of planning your yearbook or farewell magazine. The pencils have been sharpened and you are ready to start. But what content do you want in your yearbook? Have you already thought about it?
What topics
Before you design your yearbook in the makerspace, it makes sense to know what you want to write about. The editors are now collecting ideas. To really get started, take out your notebooks from the previous year and leaf through them. Collect and organise your first ideas. You may have more ideas than you can implement. Therefore, establish a hierarchy.
Ask yourself several questions:
- What is most important to you?
- What are you absolutely unable to do without?
- What do you absolutely not want to miss?
**Do you already have enough ideas for the content of your yearbook?
Just in case you are still answering no to this question, we have put together a lot of great ideas for you here.
