ACTIVITY:

Your students are completing a community project where they are asked to solve a community problem by presenting their idea to the city town council.

You are considering ways that students can document evidence of their learning and thinking so that others can see the process behind their project . Your school district has an ePortfolio software tool, but the students want to share their learning with the public.

Questions:

• Search and find some community digital resources online (website and/or pdf).
• Which community resources can you find online that be annotated with Hypothesis? Why would you choose to annotate resources with students?
• How could annotating public open resources help others understand different perspectives?
