Why annotation?

Scientific research shows that active reading promotes comprehension, attention and abstraction.

Comprehension

Annotating the text with labels enriches it with new descriptive information, revealing its structure and deeper meanings.

Attention

Actively engaging with the text promotes focus during reading, unlike traditional comprehension activities that are typically performed after reading.

Abstraction

Slowing down to interact with the text helps uncover implicit and non-literal meanings — a well-known challenge for many students.
