Journal Writing /DL Colloquium

 

 

 

 

ELECTRONIC JOURNAL WRITING

Your journal is for reflection of the assignments, activities, field trips and readings experienced in the University Colloquium. Because of the brevity of this 6 week course, journals will need to written and submitted (June 20th) as Electronic Journals. Writings can be prose or poetry, lyrical or practical, fragmented or complete. Your own digital pictures of field trip experiences are encouraged. Photos and other clip art from the Internet is also encouraged. In other words try and make your e-journal as creative as an electronic journal can be.

Below are some suggestions for your journal:

  • only put in positive reflections
  • balance the images with writing and vice versa
  • only do fun stuff in the journal
  • use a variety of writing styles, colors and formats
  • reflect on each field trip
  • include quotes from your readings
  • Digital Photographs of field trip experiences

Through the ages, right into today's creative world, journals have been the working-thinking place of great thinkers, inventors, and artists; Einstein, Darwin, Margaret Mead, Rachel Carson, Thoreau, Emerson, Muir, Pinchot, Gandhi, Churchill, Eleanor Roosevelt, Jefferson, Fuller and Soleri. Now it is time for you.
