Your first Instructor Provided Activity (IPA) will consist of you writing a short paper telling me what you expect to get out of this class, based on what you've read about the class in the course description and the syllabus.

This should be a short paper - one paper explaining what you think we will cover and what you hope to learn in the course.

Be sure to include an introduction, conclusion, and all that great stuff in the middle telling me all about you, your current profession and responsibilities and anything else about you that you think would be useful for your instructor to understand.
