Link to Journal Entry:
Your Journal throughout the course will assist in developing your final reflection / research paper for this course. This makes the assignment a little harder to develop since I want to set up assignments in way that will truly assist you in writing your final paper throughout the term. This way it is a much less daunting task. This will allow you a space to gather your thoughts on chapter material and readings which will hopefully help you shape your final assignment. I will share more structure regarding the final assignment on a future date, but before journal entry 2 is required.
