Abstract

This article suggests the use, in the HBSE course, of journal writing for developing students' writing, analytic, and integrative skills, and for evaluating students' progress in meeting course objectives. It compares the advantages of journals to those of logs, mid-term and term papers, objective tests, and in-class and take-home examinations. Journals are distinguished from logs in their inclusion of personal life experience, in addition to professional experience, in order to illustrate and integrate conceptual frameworks, research findings, values and ethics, and implications for practice and policy. The process of journal writing as an educational method is described.
