A short summary of this paper. We adopted Perusall for our students at first year and final year of undergraduate studies for two business courses.

Students were asked to use Perusall to read, make comments, and ask questions. These Perusall activities were automatedly assessed by Perusall itself. Some students enjoyed the dialogue approach with their peers, but some of the others do not appear to have engaged in the activity, even though these were part of their summative assessments.

Moreover, influencing factors of Perusall engagement are also evaluated, such as preparation time, deadline dates, type of material uploaded, difficulty level, Perusall automated marking criteria setting, peer engagement, etc.

Furthermore, our Perusall integration framework includes step by step information on how to prepare, establish, monitor, and evaluate Perusall activities. Keywords: engagement, Perusall, conversational, collaborative learning, social belonging. It also provides automated marking based upon the quality of comments and other parameters such as the amount of comments, even distribution of annotations, late submission of comments, etc.

Therefore, this research attempt to explore how this software can be used to help with the engagement levels of business students. This was due to the institutions desire to move towards an Adaptive Blended Learning ABL pedagogy, online activities is crucial for achieving this [7].

Five focus groups were conducted for both Year 1 and Year 3 students, and collected questionnaire data from Year 1 students Table 1. Sampling Groups. We published the assessment deadlines at the beginning of each term, and students receive penalties for late submission automatically. Some of these materials are developed by us, and some of them are from open public resources. To be able to identify which questions might be the best to answer in the class, and discuss them in the class, we provided responses to questions that will not be discussed in the class, and left the ones we feel are more suitable for debate.

Figure 1. However, BUS students put in a lot more annotations which are distributed throughout the document Fig. Figure 3. Nevertheless, the completion rate was extremely low comparing results from term 1. Every student prepared for every class, with. Get started it's free! Set up for an entire semester in 15 minutes.
