You've just received a prompt for a class paper. You read it once, twice, and still can't figure out what you're being asked to do or what kind of paper you're being asked to write. Sound familiar? This workshop identifies specific types of papers you may be asked to write at NPS and offers strategies for decoding and understanding instructors' prompts.
