| Summary: | Our approach deals with both navigating the cultural difficulties incoming students to the École des Ponts ParisTech may experience, and designing and implementing a module using Internet. A central part of the module was journal writing by the students. It allows the learner to relate his/her actual experience and thoughts. Our results complement former research and emphasize the fact that journals follow the learner's personal line of thought and reflect his/her process of cultural assimilation. This article focuses on the way learners have reacted to this task and how they put a lot of effort into doing the journal (self-assessment and learner's journal). This paper shows how a journal is a relevant tool for the specific public of a French graduate Engineering school. |
