** By the authors of the acclaimed Introduction to Rubrics** Major growth of interest in keeping journals or diaries for personal reflection and growth; and as a teaching tool** Will appeal to college faculty, administrators and teachers One of the most powerful ways to learn, reflect and make sense of our lives is through journal keeping. This book presents the potential uses and benefits of journals for personal and professional development--particularly for those in academic life; and demonstrates journals' potential to foster college students' learning, fluency and voice, and creative thinking.In professional life, a journal helps to organize, prioritize and address the many expectations of a faculty member's or administrator's roles. Journals are effective for developing time management skills, building problem-solving skills, fostering insight, and decreasing stress.Both writing and rereading journal entries allow the journal keeper to document thinking; to track changes and review observations; and to examine assumptions and so gain fresh perspectives and insights over past events. The authors present the background to help readers make an informed decision about the value of journals and to determine whether journals will fit appropriately with their teaching objectives or help manage their personal and professional lives. They offer insights and advice on selecting the format or formats and techniques most appropriate for the reader's purposes.

The capacity to reflect – individually and with others – is considered valuable in teacher professional development internationally. In the field of Teaching English as a Second or Foreign Language, reflective practice has been deemed to be a precious tool at the pre-service level and in the ongoing development of teachers. Despite the importance of teacher reflection, the field of Teaching English as a Foreign Language in Higher Education has tended to overlook this topic and especially its collaborative and emotional elements. This book proposes a new and practical model for engaging teachers in transformational learning through an ‘emotionalized’ version of reflection. More specifically, the Collaborative, Appreciative, Reflective Enquiry (CARE) model represents a guide for teachers who wish to engage in reflective practice alone and with others in an appreciative context. As such, this book will be invaluable to in-service language teachers and teacher educators who are committed to realizing their potential as educators and human beings through growth that only emancipatory reflection and positive emotionality can bring.

Project Report from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,0, Munich University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: In this seminar paper I reflect the experiences and feelings I had during this project in the way of a “reflective journal”, rather than a “reflective diary”. Unlikely the classical reflective diary definition, which explains a diary as a book in which you write down your personal experiences and thoughts each day, my reflective journal includes an analysis of my personal experiences and thoughts and a recommendation for future learning. For my reflective journal I follow the DIEP strategy, which helps me writing an academic reflection in four steps. The four steps in this approach are to describe an insight, to interpret and evaluate it, and to plan how it might transfer to future practice or learning. The paper is organized as follows. Section 2 contains a brief reflecting diary to DDescribe and I-Interpret what I experienced, discovered, recognized and felt during our project. Section 3 analyzes my reflecting diary according to my E-Evaluation. The fourth section focuses on P-Plan suggestions for improvement.
