Date: 2022-08-18

This presentation is an overview of the social annotation tools that, in the past year, have transformed my approach to the discussion of assigned texts in my classes. I give a brief introduction to two such tools designed for use in the classroom and with Blackboard: Hypothesis and Perusall.  I go over some of the merits of social annotation in general, as well as a subjective comparison of the two platforms.  Finally, I give a quick sense of what it’s like to upload and set up an assignment for annotation.
