Chances are you've moved away from collecting student work on paper (or would like to), and appreciate the clarity of typed comments vs. handwritten ones. | Annotate for Word 2004 PRO (for Mac Office 2004) simply helps you be better at what you already do - give great feedback to your students.
| | | | The free version of Annotate for Word 2004 for Mac Office 2004 includes many features that make commenting on student work more efficient and effective. The hard to read comment bubbles you normally get with Word 2004 are replaced with a larger, more elegant font. Key Word 2004 functions, like Open File, Email Attachment, and Insert Comment are all on ONE toolbar, along with custom buttons to insert comments in key areas.
| | | | Annotate for Word 2004 PRO for Mac Office 2004 takes feedback to a new level. You don't need to remember arcane editing symbols, and neither do your students. To comment on the placement of a citation using MLA? Or when to use a semicolon? All you need to do is highlight and click. | | | | Note: Screenshots from Microsoft Word 2003 are used here - the Mac Office 2004 version is almost identical. Once we get some high-res screenshots from our Mac, we'll post real Apple pics. | | | | Over 70 built in, plain text comments --- | | Includes positive comments (imagine that!) --- Works seamlessly with Word 2003 (nothing to learn) --- |  |
Enlarges the built-in Word comment bubble (so it becomes readable) --- Comments do not interrupt the student's writing (latest composition-think) --- Many comments are written in a questioning style (vs. a judgmental approach) |
|
Easily add your own comments in the same format, and edit any of the pre-written comments on the fly for a particular student. The individual version of Annotate uses Purdue University's Online Writing Lab as a resource for students. Institutions can also commission their own customized versions of Annotate for Word 2003 to reference writing handbooks or focus on specific content/writing issues.
