NSG 4076 Week 8 Journal – Bi-weekly Practicum Journaling Every two weeks, you will submit a reflective journal to the discussion forum for review by the course faculty and your classmates. All are expected to engage and support one another by sharing these experiences in a supportive, constructive, professional environment. Journaling is an active learning technique that is meant to enhance reflective practice (Blake, 2005). Reflective practice involves looking back over what has happened in the practice setting in an effort to improve performance or to encourage professional growth (Ruth-Sahd, 2003).
