I was intrigued by the idea of using Subtext as a tool to allow groups to work collaboratively to analyze books and articles. While Subtext offers the features of an eReader, it also allows educators and learners to leave notes for one another and add links to other related articles and assessments. This combination eReader and communication tool would allow participants to interact with a learner beyond school hours. Some articles and books are free, but one has to purchase a Premium membership to access the entire collection of curated books and articles. While some books are free to download, others must be purchased. The biggest drawback is the price. While the app is free, there is a fee of $90 per class to be able to access all of the assignment tools that transform this app into an interactive tool.
