Analyzing • Go to the TinyURL link in the “Tools” handout. • In the file that opens, click on the link to the article annotated by Deb Ellis. • Consider these questions. We’ll share answers: • What types of annotations have been made? • The file includes a video. Can you play it? • Did the article open in your browser, in Preview, in Adobe Reader or some other way? • Did the article open the same way for your neighbor?
