Using Hypothesis Social Annotation in Blackboard Learn
2022-01-12 12:00 - 13:00
Join us for “Using Hypothesis Social Annotation in Blackboard Learn.” With the Hypothesis social annotation app hosted in Blackboard Learn, instructors can make PDFs and web-based articles annotatable. Students can then annotate their course readings collaboratively, sharing comments, replying to each other’s comments, and learning in community. Instructors can also create annotation assignments using Hypothesis so that students submit their annotation “sets” for grading. Social annotation assignments are a great way to encourage students to more deeply engage with course content and with each other. In this webinar, presented in partnership with Blackboard Learn, attendees will learn how to make readings annotatable using the Hypothesis app, how to instruct students to submit their annotations, and how to grade those annotations in Blackboard Learn.
