Abstract
Journals open the door to communication for students of all backgrounds. In Expanding Response Journals, teachers will learn how to introduce and use journal writing in all areas of the curriculum.
The book suggests novel ways to help students document experiences as diverse as their ideas about and reactions to a science experiment, a field trip, using a blow-torch in a metal shop, a small-group discussion in family studies, and even a math lesson.
To help both teachers and students get started, this valuable guide provides sample cueing questions and responses; suggests how to use journals in co-operative learning situations; discusses evaluation, including diagnostic questionnaires; explores the issue of privacy and trust between teacher and student; and provides extensive student sample responses. Teachers will discover unique ways to use response journals as they help students become independent, life-long learners.
