26. I did not have the time and I didn't find it useful. I was curious to know at the beginning of the content of the journals and made a point to look into the posts throughout. The reasons for this is I enjoyed posting comments and receiving constructive feedback, this informing me and guiding me on my historical input, also with prose and grammar. At the beginning of the year it wasn't explained enough how to do it. I forgot about the journal after the first month. I did make a few entries though

33. Suggestions for improvement Incorporate the developing historical thinking content into the lectures / seminars to make people look / incorporate it into their learning. Explain more of the benefits to students. Make it more accessible. Make it clearer and more accessible. More streamlined. Make them more integrated into taught lessons. Make the journal posts to count towards grades.
