Guided Learning Activity on Annotation

Guided Learning Activities (GLAs) are offered through the English Lab and give students a brief introduction to various reading and writing skills. Many GLAs include brief quizzes to help students process the material. When I assign a GLA, I'd like you to take the embedded quizzes, but I will not see the results, so don't worry about your score.

The last activity in most GLAs is a final reflection on what you have learned. You will not complete the reflection exercise at the end of the GLA modules. Those scores do not get sent to me, so I have no way to access your answers. Instead, please return here to fill out the answers in this check-in quiz so that I can see your responses and give you credit. Once you have answered the two questions, you are done with the GLA and will receive your points. This assignment may be turned in up to one week late before it closes.

The GLA activity in this module focuses on how to annotate a textbook, academic article, or anything else you need to read actively in college. Annotation is an academic word for engaging with what you read through taking notes, asking questions, and drawing connections to other material you are learning.
