Assessment Practices Series: Social Reading and Collaborative Annotation Online
Join us for this workshop in our Assessment Practices Series: Social Reading and Collaborative Annotation.
This workshop will showcase the ways social reading and collaborative annotation can be used as a valuable way to assess student work.
Annotations have always been a way for readers to engage with texts, making notes in the margins to allow for greater engagement with the material being read. Social annotation tools create a venue for greater engagement among students and faculty, where they can collaborate and share annotations. Those annotations can add valuable information, and also provide a means to ask questions that are directly relevant to the materials being shared.
In this session, we will go over two social annotation tools that integrate with Canvas: Perusall and Hypothesis.
- Perusall is a tool that allows students to read and annotate documents, videos, and other media collaboratively. It promotes peer-to-peer engagement through crowdsourced annotations of course material.
- Hypothesis is a collaborative web annotation tool that allows students to annotate digital text like websites, pdfs, and more.
