Virginia Colony: slide annotations
How to do the homework on Google Slides (VA). Consider the following requirements:
- Choose 2-3 contiguous slides, more or less. Claim them before others do.
- 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
Feel free to use the tools in Google Slides to draw or highlight specific areas of the slide (highly recommended).

This is a formative (low-stakes) assignment, but should help you in the project.
