No more “refinding” problems!
Save (and mark up) your own copy of a Web source. Exclusive partnership with iCyte to provide a way for students to permanently archive and annotate Web pages and PDFs that they use, so that they have a snapshot of the source from the time they actually cited or took notes on it. Teachers can also view this archived version when the project is shared. Useful for things like Wikis, Web pages, blogs, tweets Requires a bookmarklet to be added to the browser’s toolbar.
