BounceApp
From DigitalRhetoricCollaborative
BounceApp is a tool [1] that can
- Generate a screenshot of any working webpage
- Create a space for users to click and drag on any part of the webpage and write a comment about it
- Generate a stable URL for users to access the comments any time they would like
Users can enter the URL of the webpage they want to comment on in the BounceApp page (http://www.bounceapp.com) to generate a screenshot and enter comments. Users can enter in a name that will appear alongside their comments and a title and then click anywhere on the webpage to create a comment.
Through these functions, BounceApp supports revising website content. With such functions, its uses include:[2]
- for students to give feedback to each other on webpages, whether it’s for an e-portfolio or any other kind of web design activity,
- for colleagues to comment on each other's online materials, whether websites or blogs.
[edit] LMS Integration
While BounceApp does not integrate into Learning Management Systems, it generates URLs, which can link URLs into learning management content.
[edit] Accessibility
For vision-impaired students, BounceApp is not accessible. The comments are not compatible with screen-reading software.
