Hypothes.is is a great tool for annotating web pages and PDFs. It is premised on the concept of social annotation allowing students to annotate content collaboratively. Collaborative annotation, as stated by Hypothes.is, “makes reading active, visible, and social, enabling students to engage with their texts, teachers, ideas, and each other in deeper, more meaningful ways.”
As a teacher you can use Hypothes.is with your students to enhance their reading skills and expand their reading comprehension by engaging them in discussions in the margins of assigned reading materials. Students can share their annotations with each other. They can add notes and tags, highlight sections in text and respond to each other’s comments.
Hypothes.is allows you to keep track of students reading, access their annotations, monitor their conversations and many more. Hypothes.is is integrated with several learning management systems including: Schoology, Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas, and many more.
Hypothes.is is also ideal for research students. It can be used to initiate discussions about topic-specific readings with fellow researchers. Annotations have unique URLs making it easy to share them with anyone. In fact, Hypothes.is is already being used in several research projects, check out this page to see examples.
