Nevertheless, several challenges were identified, such as difficulty in articulating critical thoughts in writing, challenges in interpreting feedback notes, unstable internet connectivity, limited digital skills and supporting resources, digital distractions, and confusion caused by excessive annotations from multiple perspectives. In conclusion, learners had a generally positive attitude toward digital annotation despite facing implementation barriers.
