  2. Leave thoughtful and thorough annotations as comments which will be awarded with the following feedback (ST, OK, NW) based on your choices below:

    • → Short textbook quotes which are explained in relation to the slide content (up to ST)

    • → An original analysis of images or documents covered (or not covered) in class* (up to ST)

    • → Comments as pure narration (up to OK) which is the min. req't for ALL students
Ask yourself: "How can I corroborate, or contradict, or analyze what is in the frame, and also provide empathetic narration on these chosen slides?"
