I can see where for a classroom text, it might invite some extra class participation. Although I do hate to be constantly expected to put down what I think about what I'm reading until I'm done reading it. I want to experience first, then figure out what I think about it. On on a whole it'd be something I would avoid.

But I read fiction, and find that any type of distraction takes away from the story, not adds to it. And I don't tend to make notes when I read. I didn't even write in my own college text books, but just inserted bookmarks and took notes on a separate piece of paper if I needed to.

So it's not what I'd want to get into in the first place for pleasure reading. And only if the teacher required it in a class.
