This research was conducted to gain an insight into the minds of students through journal writing. The study aimed to find out what students chose to write about in their journals. What the students write about in their journals would be a mirror to their inner concerns as the journal entries are a reflection of their inner states. The research concluded that five most frequent concerns written by the students in their journal entries were regarding their personal growth, followed by education, friends, co-curricular activities and lastly, about their family. This study also examined whether the students writing could be described as reflective and the results were; students differ considerably in the extent to which their journal entries showed evidence of reflectivity. Different students engaged in different levels and degrees of reflectivity. This research also wanted to find out if the journal writing experience developed the students attitude towards writing in English. All the ten respondents were in agreement that the journal writing experience was interesting, fun and made them feel important as they shared a special bond with the researcher. In their opinion, if their English language teachers listened to them and paid attention to their writing, they would enjoy learning the language more. It did develop in them a more positive attitude towards journal writing with the researcher.</p> 2010 thesis https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=10606 https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=10606 text eng closedAccess Masters Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris Fakulti Bahasa dan Komunikasi N/A |
