Journal Entry

Journals are a personal space for private communication between instructor and students. I use journals as a self-reflective tool for learners to post opinions, ideas, and concerns about the class, or discuss and analyze class related materials.

Reflective journaling enhances critical thinking skills and encourages deeper levels of learning. Students benefit from journaling because journaling promotes future learning. Thus, the ability to think deeply about the material and draw connections to what one already knows is the key to reflective learning. Journals are similar to blogs; however, blogs are usually public, and journals are private.
