Topic of the session: *Annotation: Knowledge in the Margin*
An important feature of digital media is that it converges reading and writing within the same editorial system. The practice of annotation, in all its forms and media, is commonly seen on the Web. Essentially publishable, annotations enrich content and contribute to knowledge production. Since annotation is gaining more ground in the digital publishing circles , we ask whether it is in the process of becoming a privileged site of intellectual creation by enabling a paradigm shift in writing practices and knowledge exchange.
*L’annotation, le savoir dans la marge *
*Une particularité des supports numériques est de faire converger lecture et écriture dans un même dispositif éditorial. L’annotation, sous toutes ses formes et de tout type de média est ainsi devenue une pratique d’écriture courante sur le web. Publiable par essence, l’annotation participe de fait à l’enrichissement du contenu, et à la constitution des connaissances. Puisque l’annotation prend peu à peu une place centrale dans les pratiques éditoriales numériques, nous nous demanderons si l’annotation ne devient pas un lieu privilégié de création intellectuelle en constituant un changement de paradigme dans les pratiques d’écriture et d’échange de savoir. *
