Scribe Posts


A Scribe Post should be a clear, creative explanation of the learning that occurred in class that day. In other words, you may BRIEFLY (a few sentences) summarize what went on, but your post **should not be a summary of the events in class**. It should be a **SYNTHESIS of the LEARNING that occurred**. Imagine a classmate was absent and you must help him or her catch up on what was missed, and make connections that go beyond summary.

I want YOU to add content (links, videos, analogies, textual evidence, etc.) that ADDS to class discussion. Push yourself to go beyond a regurgitation of words…use colors, links, images, media, and your own JUICY BRAIN to explain the learning with some PERSONAL STYLE. No length requirement** ... **** But, each Scribe Post must end with you choosing the scribe for the next day. **

A checklist for a proper Scribe Post:
 * Include a date and title for every scribe post
 * Ensure the post goes beyond summary
 * Add your own connections/thinking to the synthesis of class learning
 * Use media, color, links, and formatting to add meaning
 * CHOOSE THE NEXT SCRIBE to close your post
 * Highlight your name in red on the scribe list, or you can be chosen again in the cycle

You will need to make a new wiki page for each scribe post. Follow the link if you've forgotten how, and remember that the wiki tutorials (link in the left hand navigation bar) can remind you how to insert other media on your page.

Please ensure that each new Scribe Post page follows this format: Date-Subject-Your Name //Remember that wiki pages cannot contain certain punctuation in the name, so you'll need to use the **hyphen** to create some organization.//
