3. I was introduced to this concept by its originator
Darren Kuropatwa
From one math teacher to another I thought the idea of scribe
posts had a spot in my classrooms.
I was right.
4. Scribe Posts can be one of the simplest ways
to start classroom blogging.

5. Scribe Posts are...
The assignment is simply to post a brief summary of what
happened in class each day.
19. Students recreate what you have done in the classroom and create
a permanent record for their audience to view.
20. Teacher Responsibility
The teacher's daily involvement is limited to updating a post called The Scribe List which is at the
top of the links list in the sidebar of the class's blog.

22. Commenting on student work
Simple comments by the teacher provide the student with
feedback and knowledge that there is an audience for their work.
This is one of the most important roles of the teacher.
23. Advantages
There is a history of your class for all to see.
Students that are ill that day or ones who want to prepare
for an assessment have access to student created notes.
25. Advantages
Students step up to the challenge of being the scribe
on the given day.

26. Students do this work on their own time. Enjoy doing the
“homework” at home.
35. Obstacles
If no one comments some students feel let down.
Where can you find an audience for your students?
36. Show them the world is watching and reading
Find a Global Audience.
37. Why a blog instead of a wiki
A blog is a permanent record that cannot be erased by other
classmates. Only the author has the permission to delete a post.
