OUTCOME
Scribo allows teachers to profile the writing activity and define key prompts and targets for students to follow. When teachers define the parameters of a writing activity, the analysis of Scribo gets better. Keywords and topic analysis, together with target information, school year, level and writing style definitions, all help Scribo to do a better job with automatic feedback and cohort based analysis. PROCESS
Teachers define the Activity / Target that students are writing to.
Create New Activity from the Scribo menu.
Activity definition sets up parameters that drive the way Scribo delivers feedback and analysis.
Targets – paragraph and word limits
Topic keywords and special synonyms if any
Level of writing
Type of writing
Subject / Year level
Special word lists
Writing style attributes
These are defined when an Activity is created.
Additional information such as a multimedia writing scaffold can also be created and aligned to guide student writing. Marking rubrics and student access options set up the workflow of how students will interact with the writing activity in Scribo.
An Activity is established in under one minute.
From Activity creation, workflow options can be set, such as :
Class assignment. Student and class assignment is simple and integrated with Google Classroom if that is being used.
Students can be granted access to check their work. If teachers are using Scribo for a summative Activity, the Check Work option can be disabled.
Students can be granted access to Scriblet, our Scribo writing assistant.
LIVE MONITOR WRITING PROGRESS
As students create texts in either Web or Google Classroom / Docs, Scribo allows teachers to live-monitor progress. This feature syncs student writing from Google Docs and any writing entered via Scribo for web.
