In your entry, you should write about what you are learning as a result of the activities and information in the class sessions. Describe and analyze what you thought was most important about what we covered in class during the week. Identify some new and creative idea or strategy that you found to be relevant, helpful, interesting, or challenging. Assess how you are doing in your study practices and discuss how you could practically apply some information or skills we have covered in this course to increase your success in all of your courses, not just this one. You will be creating a reflective record of your experience as you take charge of your learning process.

Use the Journal Rubric Form to ensure your document contains the required information.  The journal submitted will be a summary of the key points you identified in your personal journals written for the previous weeks.  Your writing must be a least 300 words, with 1 inch margins, using 12 pt Times New Roman font, and double spaced.  Use the tab key to indent the first line of each paragraph.  Do not add blank lines between your paragraphs.  Formatting errors will cause a reduction in your grade.  Proofread your paper, comparing it to the journal rubric.  If assistance is needed visit the Learning Lab for free tutoring services.

Your journal should be a reflection on your learning from the class– in your entries, you should write about what you are learning as a result of the activities and information in the chapter lessons. For example, describe and analyze what you thought was most important about what we covered in that unit. Identify some new and creative ideas or strategies that you found to be relevant, helpful, interesting, or challenging. Assess how you are doing in your study practices and discuss how you could practically apply some information or skills we have covered to increase your success in all of your courses, not just this one. DO NOT SUMMARIZE the material we have covered in class.
