ABSTRACT
Collaborative Annotation is a strategy that engages students in critical thinking, writing, and collaboration [1]. My PhD investigates the effect and role Collaborative Annotation plays as an assessment strategy and how it impacts students' learning, and the quality of that learning. My research investigates pedagogical approaches and research possibilities that can further improve its impact on collaborative learning contexts and student assessment in the future. Preliminary investigations, conducted in my first year suggest that there is a positive correlation between Collaborative Annotation and student quality of learning and that the research merits further study and reflection.
