As the student reads along any word that is highlighted they need to provide a definition. These vocabulary words and definitions, are copied to a main vocabulary list with the click of a button. In addition, the teacher can add thought-provoking questions within the passage allowing students to use their critical thinking skills. These questions would be in the form of voice annotations, so it would actually be the teacher's voice. It allows your students to move along at their own pace.
Students can label highlight colors to represent themes, main ideas etc.
Students then use the highlight colors they have chosen to organize their notes by themes, main ideas, summary in their own words and vocabulary. As the student reads along, they highlight what they want right on their computer. After they have finished their chapter, they can review what they highlighted and print out their notes.
