ENG 100 Entire Course Link http://www.uopstudy.com/eng-100 ********************************************** ENG 100 Week 1 Reflective Journal Writing As you know from the Course Overview and this week’s introduction, during this course, you will complete journal entries. Your journal entries won’t be shared with the class or your faculty member, but it is important you do this activity each week as a part of becoming more comfortable putting your thoughts and words on paper. You can type your journal entries or you can hand write them; the choice is yours. The most important thing is that each week you write 1 to 1 ½ pages for your journal entry. Don’t stress about this journal writing! Write whatever you want, however you want. You can write about what you are learning in class, your daily life, personal relationships, your dreams, or whatever is on your mind that day. You can take risks, make mistakes, outline, or make notes on the course in your reflective journal, too. The goal is to get more comfortable with the idea and practice of writing.
