Learning Portfolios for PHYS4230/7660
-------------------------------------

This is a report (it can be 1 paragraph, but no more than 2 pages, 
including relevant figures and original drawings) that is attached to your 
assignment. To contextualize the material you are presenting include
answers to the following questions:

1) Specifically, why this topic or assignment relevant to your current studies. 

2) What specific background did you have in the topic before hand and
   what questions did you have about the topic that you wished to answer
   during your reading.

3) Describe how your understanding of the topic changed/evolved and what
   you learned.  Be very specific.

4) What questions remain unanswered and what could you explore
   scientifically if you were doing research in this area.

5) If you had described this to an audience, what questions would
   you expect to be asked and what answers would you give.   

Answer these very specifically. (e.g. "I knew little about this topic"
is not an answer to question 2.)  Ask the professor for examples if
you do not understand this instruction.
