IDEA JOURNAL

The aim of the idea journal is as a medium for students to express, record ideas and process.
I never expected to have this type of assignment for Foundation. I loved doing these kind of journals as a kid but I never got the patience to finish the whole thing. Thus, I was very excited about this idea journal. We were given a theme for our journals. For our term, we had a "Monster" theme. Every single idea journal was very challenging. The topics were creative and it allowed us to grow and expand our ideas.

Personally, this idea journal is like my cartoon storyboard. Each time I started working on it, it felt as if I was producing a mini series. The feeling was awesome and it motivated me until the very last part of our journal. Who knows? Maybe I will publish this journal of mine in the future. *smirks*
