Educational journal writing fosters a more personal and intense engagement in the learning process. Journalling allows the learner to “connect” with what is being learned. It permits the learner to reflect on personal learning, to pull together what has been learned, and to identify how to use the learning. Reflective educational journalling is a method of learning and of assessment.
This study identified the value of journals for the African participants. Values included having a voice, establishing and nurturing collegial relationships, and being free to ask questions within a safe milieu.
Reflective journalling requires stamina; it requires commitment from everyone.
