Journal

WRITE IN APA FORMAT

A few times during the semester, you will write one paragraph (approx. 200 words) that reflects on your personal thoughts related to the week’s work. These reflections will be read by the instructor, but not by other students. Grammar and spelling of reflections will not be graded.

Include details from the course content that show you viewed and considered it in depth. Answer each of the following prompts.

· What are your scholarly thoughts about this week's content?

· What, if anything, did you find difficult or puzzling?

· What, if anything, did you find useful, surprising or enjoyable?

· How does what you learned relate to your current life? How can you connect our study of the relationship of social issues and the arts to your major?

You do not need to summarize the content for me. Think of your journal as a personal conversation between you and me about the week's material. This means that I will know by your ideas, questions, and connections that you have read the course content because all comments will relate to what you read, viewed and learned this week.
