Thirty high school students enrolled in a freshmen Health class at a small, rural high school in Northwest Ohio participated in this study. The purpose of this study was to determine if the use of journal writing would improve student awareness of personal health issues. The study was conducted for a three week period or 15 days. The participants were surveyed before the intervention began and then again after the completion of the intervention. The results of the data indicated a positive change in the student's attitudes towards personal health issues.
