Post Writing Journal

I am taking a literary course right now. We need to write a journal for what we read. But I am coufused what a writing journal is. We are required to bring up one idea from the article. Do I need to mention the summary of the article?

I suppose you're meant to write down in the journal the names of all the books, articles, etc. that you read.
If you've read the article, it should go into your reading journal. (that is, the Title, Author, Date you read/finished it, should go into the journal).

I suppose too that you could add your comments about what you have read.

in writing a journal you must organize your ideas

starting with the day and the date is the most important point

in additition, you must say your opinion about the book if it is funny,intersting.boring...etc



if you want to see a journal see the novel of Robinso Crusoe because he wrote his journal on the island.


with my regards
