Hypothesis has some exciting new features!
Hypothesis is the collaborative annotation tool that can be added as an activity to your Moodle site. Students can annotate publicly available websites, PDF files and JSTOR articles. Read on for new functionality available with Hypothesis.
Reusing Annotations with Import/Export
With this new product function, you can reuse annotations from one assignment to another, spanning different semesters or when the same assignment is used in multiple course sites. Moreover, both faculty members and students can now export annotations linked to a given assignment.
