This paper examines the viability of journal writing as a distance education teaching technique designed to provide deeper understanding and mastery of curriculum content in graduate level education courses. In creating optimal learning experiences, four different types of journal writing can be utilized in various types of distance learning environments, however the model demonstrated is used in two way interactive video/audio conferencing. This instructional strategy serves as a basis for class discourse and student engagement in controversial debates and problem-solving activities. Enhancements dealing with content can be performed in both synchronous and asynchronous environments.Downloads
