Abstract: An electronic device includes a processor, a memory for storing digital content and a display. The processor forms a content navigation bar for the digital content. The content navigation bar is rendered on the display and includes a first section marker corresponding to a first section of the digital content. A set of page markers corresponds to pages within the first section of the digital content. The set of page markers includes a boundary page marker. A second section marker is adjacent to the boundary page marker.

Abstract: The instant invention is an apparatus and method to improve the learning experience by integrating feedback from multiple people through existing social media. The invention enables users, from within an application external to a social networking site, to automatically or manually post comments in social media related to the learning metrics of their own or other users that they have access to. These posts or comments are identifiable as associated with the external app and associated with user who posted and to the owner of the learning metric. The message can either be completely authored by the user, automatically or semi-automatically generated by the external app.
