In this project, it is your task to create ten annotations (an annotation is a note of explanation or commentary), each of at least 200 words, that also embed (as necessary, but without overkill) images and videos and/or links to outside textual/Internet sources. If someone else has already annotated a passage that you wished to annotate, you should comment upon that persons annotation, expanding upon (or saying something different from) what they have to say. It is extremely important that you demonstrate excellent grammar and analysis in all of your annotations. At the same time, you must understand that you are creating, as the Genius site instructs, dynamic content that uses proper formatting and multimedia to enhance traditional writing.
To such an end:
Heres a video about how to insert hyperlinks in your annotations.
Heres another video: this one is about how to add pictures to your annotations.
For more on that, and for a more detailed explanation of how to annotate texts in this way, you must read the Students Guide to Genius very closely! For further tips, hints, and guidelines, you must also read the Poetry Genius Guidelines. Through the Students Guide to Genius and the Poetry Genius Guidelines, you will have access to everything you need to know about how to get started and how to properly annotate texts.
