I tutor ESL after school and recently switched over to Zoom. Students are stating that they are unable to annotate. I’ve read that this is common for Chromebook users. Does anyone know of a way to bypass this and/or any video/picture tutorials? Otherwise, it looks like we’ll just have to add an additional open tab with a google share doc. Many thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide.

On Google docs if you’re using a shared doc that everyone is annotating, they can add comments and it shows up as their name. If you’ve given each student the ability to have their own copy, assign highlight colors to different annotation types: unknown words, questions, comments, etc. they am still use the comment tool to add their thoughts in the margins.

Suggestions??
