Great way to interact with text online, but it is not compatible with a Mac laptop.

My Take
I think this can be a great tool, but it doesn't replace conversational interaction about texts. It is good to create focused reading before discussion.
How I Use It
I have my seniors re-read a text they read as freshmen. This time, they're looking at it with a much more critical eye, examining the nuances of the descriptive language. Curriculet was helpful because it let me target certain areas of the text to have students stop and examine the language. I could also target and pinpoint what I wanted them to examine. Because of the way it's set up, it made student interaction with the text more immediate than pencil/paper analysis.

As a librarian, I would love to share this resource with my teachers- if only it worked.

Versatile site that allows me to upload texts that I assign. Annotation capabilities to insert instruction and videos along with checking for understanding. Reports for teachers to monitor student understanding and interaction time with the text.
Great for 1:1 classrooms. Students can access and interact with text on their devices and teachers can monitor time spent on text and students' interaction with text. Product is free!
