Journal writing

Journal writing should be an integrated part of our daily busy schedules. The journals are the recordings of the thought process. The journals help in resolving the problems those we might have been accumulating over the period of time without finding solutions. It also improves the reflective thinking and cognitive process. One can combat stress if he/she has a habit of writing the journal.
I learnt a lot while writing the journals because it invoked questions in my mind and I read, researched and synthesized  my thought process to find the answers.
The procedure is that there is no ’procedure’, means you can write whatever, whenever  and wherever. The flow of the words should be coming from the mind without any fear or concern. 
The journals can have some negative aspects also. The writer may tend to write longer journals which might become boring for the writer himself/herself over a period of time and finally, he/she  gives up writing it at all. I would like to fix the minimum number of journals that one has to write in a given week.
The quote I would like to share is-'The role of an instructor is to keep the learning community functional in virtual classes by designing the course to allow participation of all the students as community members and  increase the participation'.
