https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl Some honest talk en-us 2020-09-07 17:52:45 UTC 2025-12-08 12:50:25 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731661519 I don’t really enjoy annotations. If in the moment, I come up with a realization or a thought that I would want to return to later, I’ll write it down, but I find it troublesome for me to go out of my way just for an annotation that I know I won’t look back at.

In nonfiction books it is much easier to annotate because I’m not  as involved in the story/text. Annotations are annoying in the moment but helpful later when analyzing or writing about a text.]]> 2020-09-09 15:41:28 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731662640 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731663375 to be honest, annotations can be helpful, but are mostly annoying and distract me from reading the text. For me, I prefer going over a larger piece of text and then discussing my thoughts with others. Talking helps organize my thoughts more than annotating does.]]> 2020-09-09 15:41:36 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731663375 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731664457 I’ll try when I am instructed to annotate but I sometimes forget to do it entirely. I also struggle to think about how the author is writing the story instead of what is going on in the story itself. When I read it is like a movie playing in my head and annotating feels like I’m trying to analyze how the director directed it instead of watching it.  I prefer not to annotate but I am always open to a suggestion on how to change or make my experience better. ]]> 2020-09-09 15:41:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731664457 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731664805 I like annotating because it helps me read more carefully, but I feel like I never look back on my annotations. Sometimes, even if I make a really good annotation, I forget I even wrote it and I end up missing out on something that could have been helpful. However, if I’m reading a good book, I don’t like to annotate at all because I feel like it slows me down.]]> 2020-09-09 15:41:52 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731664805 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731664857 I usually prefer to just read than to annotate ]]> 2020-09-09 15:41:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731664857 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731665295 I don't enjoy annotations usually because I will be in the middle of book wanting to know whats going to happen next, but instead I have to think and write something down. Annotations can be helpful for me sometimes because they remind you of what has happened previously in the book, and they help you realize some important details that you would have missed otherwise.]]> 2020-09-09 15:41:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731665295 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731665503 I normally have no problems annotating. However, I prefer annotating on sticky notes instead of on the pages of the book or notebook itself because then the page becomes to crowded with words and it can get overwhelming. If necessary, I can annotate on the page but it is not my first option. ]]> 2020-09-09 15:42:00 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731665503 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731667626 I annotate when I think of a connection from previous chapters or realize something that I didn’t understand earlier. I also annotate at the end of each chapter in case I forgot during the chapter. I also write a lot of questions I have while reading the book. I don’t really like annotating either, but sometimes it’s helpful.]]> 2020-09-09 15:42:26 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731667626 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731668907 I like annotating as a way to remind myself what happened in a section/ chapter but it can sometimes ruin the flow of the story to stop and write so often.]]> 2020-09-09 15:42:42 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731668907 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731671001 Annotations are not my thing. I feel like they don’t help me. When I just read freely, I feel like I absorb the info much better. Maybe here and there jotting what the paragraph was about, but overall it’s not helpful for me and doesn’t help. When teachers assign annotations, they’re just an extra burden in my opinion.]]> 2020-09-09 15:43:06 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731671001 hoffmanp1 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731671088 I find annotating to be sometimes hard due to me forgetting  to do it and running out of sticky notes. I sometimes feel like annotations are useless because sometimes I just end up repeating what is written on the page. I find it much easier to just mark important pages without writing anything down.]]> 2020-09-09 15:43:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731671088 mossi1 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731672227 I find it annoying to stop and annotate while I’m reading but they typically help me when I have to write essays and find quotes or analyze pages/quotes. Sometimes they also help me remember the book better so if I need to annotate a book it isn’t necessarily a bad thing for me]]> 2020-09-09 15:43:21 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731672227 stradenco https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731676224 I prefer to read without annotating since it can be distracting and makes me focus less on what I am reading.]]> 2020-09-09 15:44:06 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731676224 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731679821 I don’t enjoy annotating while reading because it kind of disrupts the flow of the book that I was reading sometimes. The times when I’m annotating are usually when I’m assigned to and I find something that could be interesting. Sometimes it’s hard to remember to think about the purpose why the author wrote what they did and it’s just easier to focus on the story.]]> 2020-09-09 15:44:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731679821 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731680280 I have found that assigned annotating doesn’t work for me, but if I do it on my own when I reading then it works better for me because I don’t feel like I have to do it, but that I want to do it. And that I can write down what helps me and not what is assigned.]]> 2020-09-09 15:44:54 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731680280 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731685048 I don’t like annotating because it slows me down and I always forget what I read once I am done writing an annotation but in non fiction it helps me remember what is important]]> 2020-09-09 15:45:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731685048 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731689844 I think that annotations are not very helpful because when I am reading I always have to be on the look out for things I can annotate just for the purpose of writing it down. This disrupts the flow of the book for me and makes me enjoy it less. I am not the kind of person that looks back at stuff that I wrote before.  ]]> 2020-09-09 15:46:43 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731689844 https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731692007 I think that annotations are sometimes good but a lot of the times they are annoying to take. I always run out of sticky notes and I end up just in marking the pages with useful textual evidence. I also end up focusing more on the annotations than the details in the book. It disrupt my reading and the flow of the book.]]> 2020-09-09 15:47:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sohara5/e3erf6nic1w7i8rl/wish/731692007
