After adding four new vocabulary words to our vernacular, we spent the hour talking about and doing annotation. As mentioned in class, annotation helps with notes, vocabulary understanding, furthering research, studying assistance, and overall reading comprehension of articles and texts for college. Annotation is not a one-fits-all skill. Each of you will focus on different elements in a text. In visualization, an annotated page features highlighting, or underlining, or circling to indicate key ideas and words. The margins will feature notes, thoughts, questions, and analysis.
For tomorrow's class, we will finish our discussion -- which was very well-started by our first 8 participants. Then, we will be working on summary writing.
