Notes from either

His general advice:

  • make a plan and think about things for an hour
  • record yourself to see progress over time
  • task based goals are incredibly helpful
    • make video, write, etc.
  • Spend x minutes/hours per day as a target rather than a chapter, pages, etc.

Anthropology can act as a tool to buffer the difference between knowledge creation and prior societal experience.

It is the task of anthropology, I believe, to restore the balance, to temper the knowledge bequeathed by science with the wisdom of experience and imagination. 1

In prior generations, students may have made annotations privately in their physical (dead tree) notebooks. Did educators ask for these? Swap them? Open them to the broader group? If not, why not? Are we doing it now just because we can? Is it productive for students? Are we measuring it because we can automate it and it’s easy or because it’s so supremely useful?

open questions: I’m curious if there’s related research on pedagogy on the effectiveness of modality shifting from reading to thinking to writing that might underlie the additional pieces of forced active reading and annotating involved in social annotation?

Inspired by Nate Angell question at I Annotate 2021 during Featured Educator Office Hours

The door’s open! Drop by during Office Hours. All educators — from both K-12 and post-secondary schools, across disciplines, and with any level of prior experience using social annotation — are very welcome to pop in for a casual conversation with annotation enthusiasts. Join us and featured educator Miriam Cortez-Cooper (Physical Therapy, Rocky Mountain University of Health Professionals) and Karen Nicholas (Assistant Professor, Boise State University) to chat about the different ways social annotation is used in the classroom to support student learning.

My visible digital broken spine indicators” from the last book I read (written in HTML):

10%


45%
60%
90%
100%

Thinking about making one-to-one and onto simulacra of physical book objects into the digital space can certainly be a useful design experiment. Similarly we have to ask what else is now also possible? What might we be able to do with the additional data in terms of the corpus linguistics of reading”, or distant reading”?
