Journal Responses

 

 

Journal responses are an opportunity to express your feelings and insights as you make connections between various kinds of information. Journal entries are designed to involve you in an imaginative, thoughtful, personal writing process which will enhance your critical thinking skills and help you apply what you have learned to other aspects of your college career. Journal responses are not research papers, not formal essays, not exams, not statements of Great Truths, and will not be evaluated for grammar, spelling, or other formal structural features. They do, however, give you an opportunity to:

  • Demonstrate that you've read the assigned material and thought about it.
  • Make the material personally meaningful to you, by exploring your own experiences, interests, and feelings which relate to the material.
  • Ask questions, identify difficult concepts, and reflect on your own values.

Because journal responses are directly related to daily reading assignments and classroom discussion, late responses will not be accepted and, obviously, will earn no credit.  

 

Journals will be assigned within class plans, and usually a page tittle will be suggested, so that evalaution of the journals is easier. A good journal would be at least 300 words plus and use complete sentences.  You will be asked at times to use textual support for your answers, and you will need to use MLA in-text citation.
