The online educational environment is often presented as a means for enhancing adult practitioner learning. The notion of using online journals as a medium for learning through critical reflection and dialogue is explored in this paper. Online journal entries from church school practitioners engaged in professional development to raise levels of theological literacy and apply theological frameworks are closely examined. Differing types of journal response become evident, including narrative, exposition, testimony, demonstration and interpretive forms. What emerges is the influence of online journals to serve as artefacts for theological reflection, with both personal and relational/communal dimensions. This opens up a new space for reflective pedagogy and practice within professional learning for the church sector. It also invites wider conversation about theological education in new virtual spaces.
