Purpose: To cultivate the habit of writing. I\u2019d like you to explore your own mind, to reflect as a writer, thinker and student and make connections about what you are learning and pondering in your own life.<\/p>\n
Prompt: Once a week, make time to sit down and write for approximately 15-20 minutes (writing efficiency and thinking, of course, varies greatly). You can consider this to be a diary, a freewrite, a rant, a letter to me, a brain drain, a crafted personal narrative, or the terrible drudgery of busy work (I recommend any perspective except the last). Use this time to dig deep and use the medium of writing to explore self, world, conflict and\/or environment.<\/p>\n
Source: There will be an \u201cassigned\u201d prompt each week; sometimes that will come from the folder on Blackboard that contains 30+ prompts where I encourage you to respond in writing to the photograph, the quote, OR one of the stated prompts \u2013 you should follow your inspiration, not try to answer every question. Sometimes I will ask an impromptu question that might connect to current events in or out of class to encourage you to respond to a philosophical concept. You may also diverge from this task and truly journal by writing what is on your mind \u2013 you do not need to stick to the prompt every week.<\/p>\n
Length: around 500 words (quality over quantity)<\/p>\n

. While the journal is private, do pay attention to standard writing conventions (punctuation, paragraphs etc.).
