Academic Writing Course 
JOURNAL 
By Rosa Mary Marin 
September 13th, 2014
CONCEPT 
A journal is a scholarly publication 
containing articles written by 
researchers, professors and other 
experts. Journals focus on a specific 
discipline or field of study. Unlike 
newspapers and magazines, journals 
are intended for an academic or 
technical audience, not general 
readers. 
Journal articles are written for experts 
or students of that particular field who 
have an advanced field-specific 
vocabulary and knowledge.
THREE ADVANTAGES 
O Preserve memories. 
O Improve your writing. Generally, the more 
you write, the better a writer you become. 
Writing regularly makes writing easier, and 
it helps you develop your own writing 
voice. 
O The main one all boil down to one simple 
fact. Writing in a journal allows you to 
express yourself without being judged.
