Students will be expected to write and submit weekly?journal entries?throughout the seme

  Students will be expected to write and submit weekly journal entries throughout the semester, in which they reflect on disability issues that we will address during the course. In these reflective entries, students select a disability issue and elaborate on how their own experiences, discussions, the course readings, and current events relate to this issue. Through the journal entries, students will demonstrate their understanding of the issues discussed and the readings for the week, and use these ideas and reflections to enhance their own awareness and understanding of disability.  Each Journal entry should be 3/4 to 1 page. Points will be awarded based on the student's self-reflection, relevance to course, understanding of the topic, and use of complete sentences and proper grammar.
