      * What type of project is being proposed.  Some possible examples might include
         * A comparison of different LLM's
         * Learn how back propagation works in a neural network and implement a simple form
         * In depth analysis of how an LLM works
      * The level of understanding that is being aimed for
   * A Starting List of Actual Resources to Use While Learning
      * Specific resources (For example: Wikipedia is not specific enough.  You would need to specify which articles).  Include the URL.
      * The purpose of that resource (Such as to demonstrate the working of a neural network)
      * If the learning plan includes to creation of a system, what the resource might provide in terms of creating the system
   * A tentative time line and list of likely milestones
---++Comments
   * A learning plan is a starting place.  Things will likely need to be changed as the learning progresses.
   * A learning plan must be approved before enrollment in the course using it.  This means that the first draft should be submitted at LEAST 3 weeks before attempting to enroll since it is highly likely it will need to be refined.
