Perusall
For staff on how to use Perusall.
Perusall is a social e-reader. It allows lecturers to share digital resources with students and students to collaboratively comment directly on the readings, and to each other's contributions. Perusall also generates reports that can be used to stimulate class discussion.

CeTTL has a practice Moodle paper for staff where you can explore different activities in Perusal (such as .pdfs, videos and images).
