"Competitive" scribe posting

Great posts on 21st century leadership

"Copying the "scribe post blog" idea from Darren Kuroptawa, we've used a Blogger site this semester as a shared learning blog / scribe blog. Students were randomly assigned a partner at the start of term and a week to summarize, and worked together to post a thorough recap of their week's topic and learning points. In week 13 we discussed Pecha Kutcha presentations as well as phonecasting, and the student summary for the week was excellent. This summary was good, in part, because it included multiple hyperlinks to relevant resources."

Then follow along the description of the creation process and "behind the scenes" work that went into the production of the video. Let's dissect the video creation and look at the learning process itself. "

"Today I wanted to share our experimentation with different types of note taking as part of creating "Official Scribes" for the classroom while taking into account the students' different learning styles. Students were starting a unit about the American Revolution by watching an introductory video clip. We discussed different ways to take notes and came up with: individual note taking by paper and pencil individual note taking on a word processor collaborative backchanneling visual note taking (on SmartBoard and paper)"
