So here’s one thing I liked about the site: The notepad. What a great solution for all those schools where you can’t write in the textbook!
Some educators recommend post-its to combat the same problem. On the ‘Thinking Like a Historian’ site however, you can write your notes and save them, and can also easily access your old notes. What’s more, the notes travel with you wherever you go. So even if you move a couple of pages ahead, you can still access the notes you made from the first page easily.
I wonder if would be possible for CAST to highlight or put a check mark against the notes you make for a certain page, when you revisit that page. For example, if you revisit page two and you open your notebook, not only should you be able to see the notes you made from across the lesson (which already happens) but page two’s note should be highlighted. That way, there could be an easy connection between the text and the notes.
