The Student Experience
Your students can use a Highlighter to annotate or mark text within a Text item you provide them with. They simply select the text section with their mouse or touchpad, then click on the highlighter color of their choice from the 4 options offered. The text they selected will immediately be highlighted.
Pro Tip!
If you add a Drawing question to your text box, or a Show Your Work box (Paid Teacher / School & District feature) to any of the questions you add to your formative - your students will be able to add a screenshot of their annotated text for your review.
