2. Journal Paper. This paper will be comprised of 4 – 6 journal entries. These entries should be written “in the field” and then brought back indoors, typed up, and edited.
The purpose of this paper is to combine close observation of our natural world with some reflections on your world. The goal is to observe and describe some of the natural world around the Proctor campus while mirroring Thoreau’s journals.
- record any observations of nature
- write how you or people "should" live to improve their lives – reflections on society
- explore what happens to you & your thoughts when you slow down
- digress and let your mind wander
Requirements: You need to include FOUR specific elements of nature in DETAIL. This might be the wind, the light, a type of bug, the look of a group of trees, the signs of autumn, a close up description of a spot in the woods. This shows your ability to “see” closely. Use sensory details. Also, include FOUR thoughts on society, your life, human nature.
