Annotatsioonidel

Annotatsioonidel is a term originating from Estonian, referring to annotations or notes made on a text. These annotations can take various forms, including marginalia, highlighting, underlining, or even separate accompanying documents. The purpose of annotations is to aid in understanding, remembering, or analyzing the content. They can be personal, serving as a way for an individual to process information, or they can be collaborative, shared among a group for discussion and shared interpretation.

The practice of annotating is common across many fields, from academic study and research to creative writing and everyday reading. Students annotate textbooks to grasp complex concepts and prepare for exams. Researchers annotate scientific papers to identify key findings and potential avenues for future work. Readers might annotate novels to explore themes, characters, or literary devices. In digital contexts, annotations can be implemented through features like comment sections, sticky notes, or digital highlighting tools, facilitating a more dynamic and interactive engagement with the material. The effectiveness of annotations often depends on their clarity, relevance, and the annotator's engagement with the text.
