3. Challenge of multi-disciplinary reading
Significant source of stress and anxiety for students on arrival
Wide range of paper structures, academic language and writing styles
Reading every word is time consuming
Uncertainty of purpose of the reading - what should I be looking for, why has it been included?

Standard structure and principles of what ‘qualifies’ a reading to go in each
Adopt ORLO nomenclature

6. Pedagogic improvements: lists to curated collections
The note function enables me to provide a steer on how to approach the reading, to make connections with previous or up-coming classes & put the paper/author in context
Doing this keeps me closer to the readings I set and my lecturing
The bookmarks tool makes it easy to adjust reading lists as I go along.
Easy to add additional readings if a topic comes up
Why its on the list
Relationship with other classes and modules
Who is the author
How to approach the reading
What I like about the reading

7. The integration with Canvas is great
