• Describe what happened in chronological order during the semester.  What did you do?  If you taught a lab, describe how many students were in the lab and when the lab met.  If you did an independent project, describe how you thought about it, what plan you and your advisor came up with, and what you did throughout the semester (include any relevant photocopies of learning contracts).

• Explain your expectations at the beginning of the semester.  What did you think the semester would be like?  What were you most concerned about?  What were you least concerned about?

• Explain what happened regarding your expectations.  Did things turn out the way you expected?

• Describe any unforeseen problems or situations that arose during the semester.  What happened?  How did you deal with them?

• If you taught a lab, describe what improvements you could suggest for the next time the lab is taught.  If you did an independent study or special problem, describe what could have been done to improve your experience.

• Your finished reflection paper should be between five and 10 pages long.  Please double space the entire paper.
