From the supplier: Educational reforms call for an integration of assessment techniques into the teaching process. Asking students to write journals to gain an insight into their physical education experience is a way to promote affective development in the subject. It entails asking the students to write on journals reflecting on what they intended, did, and felt in the class. The practice promotes respect and sensitivity toward others, responsibility, cooperation and fair play among students. Journal writing thus has the potential to enhance the overall development of students.
