Support Writing Creation

Practice makes the difference. Practice takes time, feedback takes more time. Scribo knows this and really helps everyone.

Starting an Activity Context to achieve an outcome

Activities can align to any writing context you want to create. They can bring together a range of objectives and elements tailored to what you want to achieve in way less time.

"Honestly, I use Scribo and its AI and Machine Learning for one major reason. It takes away the part of my job I honestly do not want to do, and it gives me the feedback I need to be a FAR BETTER EDUCATOR!" Gabriel Suppiah Score Campus Founder

The CORE Writing Elements Scribo covers

Student Writing Checks – bring elements together

One of Scribo's core features is giving students the ability to check their writing for a range of writing errors and issues as they are writing. Why wait for the writing errors to become a teacher's problem? Busy marking work accounts for almost 70% of teacher interactions with students.

Scribo Student Writing Check – OPTIONS

When the 'Students can self-check their writing' is activated, students can check their writing in Scribo.

There are options that you set up to allow this to happen. These options can be isolated or used in combination.

In each Writing Activity Context, there are key options that drive the way students connect to time-saving features.

Key Options are selected by Teachers

1. This is an Essay. Students need to include an introduction with a thesis statement. Obviously, not all essays are equal. If this is not something you want students to have feedback on, or you have not yet got their heads around thesis statements, don't select this.

2. Students can self-check their writing. In the Elements table above, the fundamental writing components that Scribo monitors are listed. These are all available for students to see and use unless you want them to focus on 1 or 2 items in line with what you are trying to achieve.

Deselect the writing elements that you don't want students to access.

Imagine you are working on Vocabulary this week and you are trying to get everyone centred on finding and using more academic words. Select Vocabulary only. If your passion this week is Sentences and Passive Voice, turn everything else off.

If you dont de-select, your students will see them.

Show Keywords in writing check. A great option for restricting support. If you want students to have access to keywords you set up for them, turn this option on. If not, leave it off. In an exam situation you may or may not want to give keywords support.

Fun Facts about options

1. You don't get stuck with options you cannot change – you can always go back into the Activity and change options to suit you, even if the Activity has been assigned to students. If you want to get students working without support, close down Student Check. When you are ready, open it back up! You can alter options as you like to support your approach.

2. If you change a Scaffold or add one midstream, Save will reset the options.

3. If you change Writing Plans, Scribo will wipe the existing Plans and create a new container that will update students. They will lose their plan if it has been completed.
