One of the greatest things about being an "El Ed" Major is that many of my general education classes are specific to the program and have titles that broadcast that fact: Physical Science for Elementary Education Majors, Geography for Elementary Education Majors, Mathematical Reasoning for Elementary Education Majors, and of course, Advanced Writing for Elementary Education Majors.
I have had advanced writing classes before. Difficult writing classes that emphasize deep ideas, flawless rhetoric, beautiful presentation, and organized, well written thoughts. My first two weeks in Advanced Writing for Elementary Education Majors I expected critical thinking writing assignments, but instead we have:
a. Written a "letter of introduction" to our professor, and;
b. Talked about different types of journals.
Not that I am complaining! I have more than enough on my plate to keep me busy and have discovered how to burn the candle at both ends. Which leads me to my main point. The assignment was to begin a new type of journal, something you have never done before. I have kept a personal journal, a scripture journal, a gratitude journal, a travel journal--but I have never before kept an "e-journal." So, let me be the first to welcome you to this little spot of cyber-space ground. Cheers.
