Logs

Logs are a way of keeping track of learning activities. They are used for a specific purpose and can be kept over any appropriate length of time. It is best for learners and instructors or tutors to decide together what kinds of logs would be most helpful to keep, and how long to keep them. The following logs of research sources and reading are examples only. Please adapt the contents to suit the contexts of individual learners and your organization.
