Journal Entry: Field Experience Expectations
Journaling is an activity used by students and professionals alike for self-reflection. It has many personal and professional benefits including reducing stress and increasing learning (Alford, Malouff, & Osland, 2005; Liuolien & Metinien, 2009). Throughout your field experience you will be asked to journal about your thoughts, experiences, and/or insights. You are asked in some weeks to share selected journal entries with your peers, as your reflections and experiences will benefit them and vice versa.
