Intellectual Journal



Intellectual Journal in Psychology

To improve your learning throughout the course you will be required to write an Intellectual Journal on your Weblog. Writing in this way will help you clarify your ideas and prepare you for the writing you are required to do in your exams. Using a weblog will allow you to invite other learners to respond to your thoughts and reflections by adding comments.

Types of entries you will make:
1. Responses to articles, textbooks and classroom discussions.
2. Responses that review material covered in class: what did I learn, what questions do I still have, what ideas and concepts do I need to clarify.
3. Personal responses where you apply psychological concepts and theories to your own experiences.
4. Reflective responses when you review what you have learnt over the unit.


This is NOT a journal where you keep your daily activities log, or write about your personal and emotional life, except as it is affecting what and how you are learning. The focus is your intellectual growth.
