-TURN ANY BOOK/DOC INTO A DIGITAL CLASSROOM-
Subtext is the only ereader built for K12 classroom use, so it’s packed with features designed specifically for you and your students, including:
• Embedded Discussions: Layer in prompts, videos, or informational texts, then collaborate with your class.
• Classroom Groups: It’s easy to create a group in Subtext, and your students will only see notes from you and their fellow classmates.
• Save to Subtext: You can save web articles to your personal and group libraries in Subtext. ‘Save to Subtext’ is available in the app under ‘+Tap to Add Books & Articles’ and on the web through our free bookmarklet.
• Book Blog: Students are prompted to add a rating and comment at the end of each chapter or section—creating a digital reading journal that tracks their reactions to the book.
• Edmodo Login & Web Discussions: When you log into Subtext with Edmodo, your Edmodo groups are pulled into Subtext as closed groups. Then share your notes in Subtext to Edmodo.com and ask your students to reply on the web.
• Get Class on Same Page Instantly: Double finger tap to ‘Invite a group to this page’ through notifications. Keeps everyone on task in class.
• Offline mode: You and your students can view and add annotations while you read without web connectivity. Your new notes will be uploaded the next time you’re online.
• Multiple Logins: Subtext supports multiple logins, so students can share an iPad (and books) without ever seeing each others' notes.
• Restricted Student Setting: This setting lets teachers limit student access to the web, content, messages and new groups.
-SUPPORTS THE COMMON CORE-
When you and your students annotate a book or document in Subtext, notes are linked to a specific passage so there’s a built-in emphasis on close reading, citing text evidence and deeper rigor and relevance. Find more Common Core presentations and information at subtext.com/blog.
