  • they laboriously start over, re-notating an earlier reading.

      This is frustrating at times, for sure. However, do you think there is ever a situation where a FIRST reading without annotation is a good idea?
  • only when cramming for a test

      Proaction is better than reaction. Always.

      After the teacher models his or her preferred way... what is the best way to go about granting permission to diverge?
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • You can deliberately engage the author in conversation and questions

      And when using Diigo to annotate online text, a simple invite can engage an author in a very real way with not only one student's connections, but potentially those of an entire class.

  • much like having a teacher or storyteller with you in the room

      What if one of the emerging roles of a teacher in the 21st Century was to enlist other expert "teachers" beyond the assigned teacher at the front of the room? Would this be a good thing? How so?
  • Annotate any text that you must know well, in detail, and from which you might need to produce evidence that supports your knowledge or reading, such as a book on which you will be tested.

      This is very close to the metric I use for deciding whether I will buy the book in digital form or paper copy. What is the percentage of digital texts vs. paper texts you currently find yourself purchasing?
  • if you're relaxing with a book, well, relax. Still, some people—let's call them "not-abnormal"—actually annotate for pleasure.

      Amen on: not annotating when reading for pleasure. That said, I found it liberating to be labeled "not-abnormal" for considering books that I WOULD annotate (nearly all of them) something that is actually pleasurable for some. I'm a fan of non-fiction, and I cannot, for the life of me, remember a text I have recently read that didn't teach me something that I would want to be able to recall at a moment's notice if I wanted/needed  to.
  • Don't annotate other people's property, which is almost always selfish, often destructive, rude, and possibly illegal. For a book that doesn't belong to you, use adhesive notes for your comments, removing them before you return the text.

      This is the first statement made that in perhaps fundamentally different about using Diigo to annotate a text. This is truly a "best of both worlds" situation where you can simultaneously share annotations, "aha! moments" and reflections... and yet still read the text without any of the markup showing. At this point in the text, allow me to pose this question: what are positives/negatives of this approach in your opinion?
  • blue and pink and fluorescent colors are even more distracting.
    • Sean Nash

      Here is disagree completely. Color allow differentiation of thought. I'm better the author was never introduced to a strategy that allowed this for online text. Imagine the metacognitive power added when students are encouraged to not only log process their takeaways in the text... but to also categorize their thoughts along the way. There is a body of research providing a nod to categorizing reflections & questions.

      I agree. Highlighting in different colors helps me organize my thoughts.

      Check out the following link and take a look at how much additional work this teacher had to do in order to make his thinking visible for his students/colleagues. This capability is baked right into Diigo.
  • Even geniuses make mistakes, temporary comments, and incomplete notes.

      Is there value in being able to see thoughts before they are fully formalized? Is this something a teacher to act upon as formative information?
  • Create your own system for marking what is important, interesting, quotable, questionable, and so forth.

      Yes. This is exactly what is allowed by use of this tool.......
  • Inside the front cover of your book, keep an orderly, legible list of "key information" with page references.

      This is no longer needed when using Diigo to annotate. All markup is catalogued right along with tags, etc. for every article read. Not only does it save this categorization to a central and personal space, it is now possible to share this with an entire community of learners in the same boat.
  • that's useful idiosyncrasy.

      ...and reading this closely is perhaps the only way to make such rigorous text reachable for the students we teach.

      A pretty solid set of credentials that adds authority to the words within this article.

      Sticky notes can also float beside the text which is valuable for big-picture takeaways, reflections, and overall question to the teacher or all classmates.

    Most serious readers take notes of some kind when they are carefully considering a text, but many readers are too casual about their note-taking. Later they realize they have taken notes that are incomplete or too random, and then they laboriously start over... AP Central - How and Why to Annotate a Book http://t.co/0hCZX0Gegr
