Module 2 No-prep Journal

Q Each no-prep journal is based on your pre-existing knowledge. You don’t need to read anything in the module before completing it. I am just interested in your thoughts and understanding of the topics we are about to embark on. Write a short (2-3 paragraphs) essay answering the following questions: • What do you think is the difference between journals and magazines? • Who decides whether an article is worthy of publication (in a journal and in a magazine)? Based on what criteria? • Do these criteria differ between journals and magazines? You can write your journal in Microsoft Word and then attach the file to the submission or just type your answers to the questions above into the journal frame. (Only you and the instructor/TA will be able to see journal entries. They are graded based on how thoughtful and to-the-point they are.)

A magazine is a publication that includes articles, opinions, and personal stories. Journals are academic journals by scholars or experts. While a journal includes original study papers, magazines include reporting on current affairs or matters of general interest. There is a summary and a bibliography of the documents in a journal. But there are no abstracts and bibliographies in a magazine post. Where papers provide detailed written information and contain a thorough knowledge of the subject, the articles in a journal are short and offer a general description of the issue.
