Different Types of Annotation I make when reading

  When I'm usually reading an article, I like to make a couple different types of annotations. The different types of annotations I like to use are underlining important pieces of the text. Underlining important pieces of text is one of the most simplest forms of annotating. I liked to use this because it helps me pin point certain parts of the article. The next form of annotation I use is circling important words. Circling important words help me understand that the section that word is in might be an important section. The last two types of annotation I like to do work off each other. These two are summarizing what I thought the author is writing and what that the text means to me in my own words.
  Other people told me their types of annotating. Writing down in the margins if they agree or disagree with the author. Starring different sections on things he finds interesting. Try to relate the article to the real world. Note when the author repeats certain information. Noting rhetorical devices. Ex...ethos (credibility), pathos (appeal to emotion) and logos (logical reasoning). Color coding different important parts of the text. Starring quotes to use as citations.
