Social Annotation 101 is a two-week course designed to teach you not only how to use the Hypothesis tool, but how to design social annotation assignments to best support your students’ learning.

By the end of the course, you’ll have set up a Hypothesis-enabled assignment in your course site, complete with instructions for your students and a grading plan.

If you complete all of the required components of the course, you’ll also receive recognition as a Hypothesis Certified Educator for the course Social Annotation 101. This includes a digital certificate (which can easily be shared to your social media pages or downloaded and saved to a portfolio) and recognition on our website.

During the fall 2023 semester, Blackboard was accessed over 98,000 times via the mobile app. Using the mobile app, students read assigned articles, view and read textbooks, watch assigned videos, and more. The mobile app allows students to learn when they have a few minutes and only have access to their phone. In this session, we’ll share some tips on how you can design your course site to facilitate learning on the mobile app.
