Journaling Best Practices

The Journal is suitable for simple, short, online writing assignments in which students will refine their entries over time based on feedback from the marker. Journal assignments should be simple because it allows online text only and it does not allow for file uploads or use of the rubric or marking guide. Journal assignments should be short to prevent the 'scroll of death' for markers because entries for all participants or groups are shown to the marker at the same time on one page.
