The Happiness Journal The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart. - Thich Nhat Hanh Description: The journal is designed to help you reflect upon the readings, class discussions, and your experiences related to happiness. Journal entries should be creative expressions and may include images and reflective comments and questions based on, or inspired by readings and discussions that occur in the classroom, relevant contemporary issues in the media, your observations and personal experiences, or on other topics related to the course. You are strongly encouraged to be creative and illustrate your entries with images and drawings. Examples will be provided on D2L and discussed in class. Number and Length of Entries: You will need to fill two 8.5x7, 16-Page Blue Books (feel free to use the inside covers, as well) during the semester; one during the first half and the other during the second half of the semester (see due dates below). Format: The journal must be kept in an 8.5x7, 16-page Blue Book. Entries can be typed or hand written but all materials should be attached to the Blue Book pages. Note: You will need to purchase two 8.5x7, 16-page Blue Books (they are available in the UA Bookstore). First Journal Set – One Blue Book (March 7): The first entry (first page, NOT the entire Blue Book) should comment on yourself; tell us who you are, where you're from, what you do (in addition to being a student), and about your interests. This Journal set must also include one entry for each of the two movies: Happiness 101 and Happy. These two entries should identify and discuss one thing in each movie that made an impression on you or you found interesting and why. Second Journal Set – One Blue Book (April 25): The last entry (the last page at the end of the semester) should comment on this course; for example, what you learned, enjoyed (or not) about the course, and what, if any, lifestyle changes you have been inspired to make to achieve greater happiness. Special Journal Assignments: Throughout the semester, I may announce (in class) additional topics on which you must write about in the journal. Due Date and Time: Journals must be submitted in person in class on the due dates. Late journals will not be accepted.
