Dear Prof. Smith,
I will succeed in getting an A in this class by fulfilling the 5 learning outcomes highlighted below:
4. b. – Uses deep knowledge of global systems to develop and advocate for informed, appropriate action to solve complex problems. 30%.
This course is centered around gathering data and using it efficiently, so making that a goal is beneficial. So, I plan to demonstrate that by showing my complete final project where the data will be organized and shown in a way that demonstrates the work done throughout the semester. I will put up the final project to show this outcome was fulfilled.

5. c. – Responsibly integrates research and demonstrates full understanding of the ethical and legal restrictions on information use. 20%.
Fully understanding when data should and shouldn’t be used is very important for research and system analysis. I will show this by putting up reflections where data ethics had prevalence. I will put up sections of work reflecting on the ethical part of data research.

12. b. – Facilitates collaborators’ contributions by building upon their contributions and noticing when someone is not participating and inviting them to engage. 20%.
I believe it is important to collaborate in group environments well, especially in a curriculum like CODES where almost all work is group work. So, I will be contributing to group work and allowing everyone to have a part in our projects. I will put up excerpts of my work from our group projects.

10. b. – Uses quantitative analysis of data as the basis for deep and thoughtful judgments, drawing insightful, carefully qualified conclusions. 30%.
After gathering data, the next step is using it to develop ideas and draw conclusions. This learning outcome is meant to show the effective usage of quantitative data. I will be using any excerpt showing effective conclusions drawn from data analysis.

These are the outcomes that I believe will be most beneficial for me as a scholar and as an A+ student.
Sincerely, Brandon Underwood
