Annotation types

As you reflect on your reading, you may leave comments of different types:

• Pointing out a detail of the text and describing what you think it means
• Asking questions about a sentence or paragraph's meaning or about a figure of speech you don't understand
• Reflecting on the historical context (you may choose to include a link to another web page for this and describe the information)
• Connecting to personal experience, class discussion, or other course materials
  

You may also choose to answer other students’ questions or add on to their observations.
