<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">Ask a professional and he’ll tell you that journal writing is equally
the easiest and the toughest thing to do. How come?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">It’s the easiest because journal essays are not meant to be polished and
error-free assignments. They are not completely developed. In fact, your
instructors would like to know how much you have understood and how your brain
is processing the information you have been receiving during the course. This
is why journal assignments are sort of open-minded assignments. And this is the
reason why they’re often considered to be the hardest. There are no clear
instructions to follow. You’re mostly on your own. <o:p></o:p></span><span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">The best thing to do is, write as fast as you can. Listen to your inner
voice and write whatever it tells you. If it says, “I want to go to moon”,
write the same thing on the piece of paper. Don't worry about punctuation,
spelling, whether or not what you're saying makes sense. Do not stop at
any cost. Do not look back at your mistakes in writing. It’s free-writing, not
the editing phase.  Keep writing and keep
refocusing on the subject assigned. More and more ideas will come out onto the
page.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">You can try out different methods,
approaches, even vocabulary of your instructor’s discipline. Try to join the method
of their teaching with your thinking. You need to know what you’re studying.
Join your mind with the material of the course you’re studying.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">This is known as meta-cognition which is the
process of thinking about thinking. You need to get outside of what you’ve
written. In academic discourse lingo that's called
"meta-cognition"--thinking about thinking, getting outside of what
you've written, outside the process you've just been through so you can think
about it, evaluate it in a different voice.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
