In Conclusion
So, if you want to encourage students to do journaling, it’s good to find journaling prompts that suit them. They should be things that will get someone to think, and possibly relate to something they are learning.
If you plan to read the journals or have them read by others, make sure the prompts aren’t too personal, either.
And, last but not least, choose a nice design for your journal. The most important page of a journal is the bullet journal cover page. And, it’s a really nice touch to make this first page really unique.
