Single Intent – Save time with better information

The Writing Panel Report creates insights and lesson plans for teachers, students and class collaboration – in minutes

Scribo builds a body of knowledge for teachers to share with students

Six Levels of Analysis + 1 (Overview)

Scribo uses a very generic 6 levels of analysis that easily maps to US 6+1 Writing Rubric (with the exception of Presentation). This level of analysis is not a particular rubric analysis. The levels that Scribo creates are relative to the Cohort and based on four quartiles of analysis. The whole idea of the Panel Target Board is to give teachers a heads up on where Scribo finds high, medium and low levels of core performance across the six core elements of writing.

These levels are generic and easily map to other well-accepted structures like the Common Core 6+1 Writing Rubric.

Analysis Overview

When a section is clicked on, Scribo takes teachers to that section of the report. There are four zones, coloured in Red, Orange, Yellow and Green. These are the 4 quartiles of student performance.

In one eyeshot, Scribo shows where teaching time could be focused. In this case and student cohort, Topic, Vocabulary and Sentences are the main issues needing teacher attention.
