What do you think ?!
We think this is a great idea and are thinking of putting the stars on the spine to attract students looking for a book.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good variation on the idea, and has the advantage of being visible to students while the book is on the shelf rather than needing to open the cover...
ReplyDeleteI think it would be important to promote the fact that these are student-generated ratings.
