Support Social Annotation with Perusall: Strategies for Engaging Psychology Students with Your Course Content

August 19th -- 1:00 PM ET

Join us for a webinar on how social annotation can improve student performance in your psychology courses. Social annotation invites students to collaboratively highlight, comment on, and discuss course readings directly in the text, helping them engage more deeply with the material. Dr. Alison Melley of George Mason University will share how she uses Perusall—an interactive reading platform that supports this kind of engagement—to boost student participation, information retention, and overall performance. The session will also include a brief demonstration using the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association to showcase Perusall in action.
