ABSTRACT

The university of South Australia describes the paper that uses the reflective journal in a computer programming course. It describes rationale for the journal and relates to the contribution and also it can make to generic skills of lifelong learning, problem-solving and communication etc. Also, we can relate it to the personal software process (PSP) it is used by the industry to encourage software engineers to improve productivity by 'review’. How students were asked to use the journal and evaluate its influence on learning likewise we introduce the details. We conclude that in programming courses there is a place for the reflective journal. Many numbers of students reported benefits to their learning along a number of dimensions-and it was supported with evidence both in their journal and by their absolute attainment. The reflective journal is not universally accepted. We recommend such a reflective technique in computer science for good software practice and deep learning.
