Mark Up The Margin With AnnotatED: Social Reading With Collaborative Annotation - Session B

Streamed Session

Watch This Session

Brief Abstract

In collaboration with the Online Learning Consortium and AnnotatED, the community for annotation in education, Hypothesis is convening a free workshop on collaborative annotation at Innovate 2020, which is fully online this year. Register now to join one of two sessions on Friday 12 June 2020 — or come to both. The general program of both sessions will be the same, but the participants and activities in each will be a bit different. Come to either session to get one scoop of social learning goodness, or come to both for a double dip!

Both workshop sessions will start off with a quick orientation to collaborative annotation for social reading: what is it, and how are people using it to enrich online learning? This will be followed by Notes from the Field, where you'll hear from a variety of AnnotatED community members about how collaborative annotation is happening at their schools, and you’ll have the chance to discuss your ideas and questions with these experienced practitioners.

The main focus of each session will be a hands-on activity to explore, discuss, and augment readings on topics shaped by Innovate 2020 keynoters Maha Bali and Martin Weller. We'll practice reading together to see firsthand how collaborative annotation can build understanding, connections, and community. Our conversations will be anchored in texts — literally — and spread out to engage other texts, ideas, and people beyond the workshop itself.

***To participate in this free workshop, please register for the workshop here***
