You've got two choices. In both cases, you want to plug your kindle into your computer and look in the documents folder. If your daughter has a kindle (or kindle for PC), you can send her BOTH the azw file AND the .mbp file for the term paper. The .mbp file contains your notes, bookmarks, and where you left off in the book. If she were to load both of these files onto her kindle, the paper should have your notes.

The other option is to find your Clippings file. It's a txt file. It makes a note of every highlight and note you make in every book. If you've highlighted a lot of books, you should just find the ones for her paper (they are listed chronologically, of when you made the note). The notes will refer to a location, so it is best if she also has a kindle version of the document to know what spot you were talking about each time.
