Description and Table of Contents
Description
Journal Keeping is a superb tool for educators who want to be reflective practitioners, and help their students become reflective learners. I hope this fine book will be widely read and used."--Parker J. Palmer, author of "The Courage to Teach," "Let Your Life Speak" and "A Hidden Wholeness"
"An impressively complete and well organized exploration of the uses of journal writing. It provides rich backing for John Dewey's key insight, namely that it's not experience that makes us learn, it's reflection on experience."--Peter Elbow, author of Writing with Power, and Everyone Can Write, and Professor Emeritus, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
