Student will create an account with hypothes.is using the name they go by in our course.
Student created two annotations in hypothes.is : one on a primary source and one on a secondary source.
Annotations explained something about the source, asked relevant questions, or provided historical context.
Student joined the group in hypothes.is and made sure all their annotations are submitted to the group, not the pubic.
Student tagged their annotations with metadata.
Student responded to another student’s annotations.
When you write yourself a little note on the side of a book you are reading, that’s an annotation. To annotate is to add a note to a source. We can now do this collectively in a digital environment, which allows us to learn together in ways that traditional reading separately does not.
Our work this week will focus on analysis of sources all together. Annotation is writing on a source itself. To do this we are going to use a new tool, called hypothes.is . Please create an account at https://web.hypothes.is/

While we will be annotating as a group, I am going to use a feature of hypothes.is called “groups” to keep our annotations private.

For this assignment, I’m asking you to do two annotations.
Your last task is to respond to someone else’s annotation, perhaps answering their question or relating it to your annotation. Annotating a text as a group allows us to directly engage each other’s analysis of the past in situ, which means in their original place.
Double check that all your annotations have been saved to the Normandale Face to Face group (I can’t give you credit if I can’t see your work).
