Engaging Students with Annotation Tools (for Instructors)

A 30-minute demo sessions for Columbia Faculty and Graduate student instructors. 

Would you like to help your students engage more deeply in the course reading, and more meaningfully with each other during collaborative assignments? Do you need a space where students can read and annotate together? Are you looking for new ways to promote reading for comprehension?

Experience a short demonstration of Perusall, a free tool developed at Harvard to promote social reading and collaborative annotation. The demo will end with a quick overview of other similar tools for annotation and be followed by opportunities to ask questions and to reflect on how you might intentionally integrate Perusall and other tools for collaboration into your teaching context.
