If you’d described that scene to 10-year-old Muj, he’d have believed it. He probably would also have thought he was playing in the Premier League. And even though 10-year-old Muj would’ve just been learning the game of football on a field in Yemen with his friends, he’d still have believed it because his dream always was to become a famous footballer.
He's telling us this was his goal/dream from when he was 10. He is talking about himself as "he". He also tells us he was in Yemen.

The literature review has revealed that SA technologycan serve different roles in different instructional tasks.
The tool can be used for different purposes; do annotations differ depending on who sets the purpose (teacher or the students themselves)?
-
SA tools have been found beneficial for collaborative learning. Manyresearchers recommend to use small teams to not only highlight andannotate web-based reading materials but also to engage in more sub-stantive learningactivities. Specifically, teams of 2–3 people were foundoptimal for collaborative activities such as peer-critique, articles cri-tique, and other evaluation activities
Reinforcing the importance of small groups
-
The authors examined the possiblebenefits of annotations over bookmarks web-based tools. Specifically,the authors used Delicious social bookmarking service and Spread-Crumbs web-based annotation tool to understand users' annotationbehaviors when reading, and to identify the benefits and drawbacksof SA tools.

We need to find ways to build community among learners and build personal relationships with individual students even if we can’t see them. Or at least encourage young people to create their own.
- This is so important - showing students how to create autonomous, supportive spaces, especially for high school students who often don't see online spaces as safe or supportive.

We need to remind ourselves that treating everyone the same way as an attempt to be fair does not achieve equity for all.
This relates to conversations happening in schools that use outcomes or standards-based learning. This pandemic has exposed the ways in which these standards fail to be equitable, even in mastery-based schools where teachers are designing choices that don't exist on a wide-enough spectrum.

I spend a lot of time trying to pinpoint how fear is learned. Or, rather, how we decide that fear is a necessary animal that grows out of our expectation to survive at all costs, and how I have been afraid and feared at the same time.
