Taking too long?

Attached is one of the many readings done in bodies and citizens. It is not the original one that I wanted to upload, as that one exceeded the maximum file size, but it’ll do. With every reading, the student had to go through and annotate a fair amount on each page. This initially didn’t seem too bad as the beginning readings were less than ten pages long, but soon the innocent freshman would begin to lose all free time they believed they had because the readings became longer, and longer. Soon enough, the class would rejoice at a reading assignment that was less than 50 pages. Now, you may be thinking that this doesn’t sound too bad, and you’d be right to some extent. This is really just reading and taking notes, but after that time consuming journey, the student gets to figure out how to upload pictures of the entire reading to Canvas, which turns into an adventure in and of itself. The way I found to work was to take a picture of each individual page, email it to myself, download the images, and then spend fifteen minutes uploading it. So, if I have gained anything from this class, it is a newfound love for cliff notes and highlighters.
