Perusall in Moodle
Perusall is a social e-reader. It allows lecturers to share digital resources with students; students to collaboratively comment directly on the readings and each other's contributions.
How to access Perusall
- Always access Perusall via the Perusall link in your Moodle paper.
- This will ensure that:
- your contributions are included in the discussion, and
- if your Perusall contributions count towards your paper total, the marks entered are correctly added to your grades.
- The link may be in the Introduction section of your paper, or within a particular Topic or Week. Ask your lecturer if you can't find it.
- Go to the relevant Moodle paper.
- Find and select the Perusall activity link. The activity will have a Perusall P logo next to it, similar to the screenshot below.
