Writable helps teachers connect with students throughout the writing process. Teachers can scaffold students’ writing, reviews, and revisions, delivering structured writing practice directly tied to their instruction. Writable also provides actionable insights about students’ progress to help teachers confer with them at the right time, so students get more and better feedback throughout the entire writing process.

Whether using a writer’s workshop model or a more structured writing approach, Writable helps build increased metacognition and harness the teacher and peer feedback that contribute to a writer’s growth. Writable is piloting with iPad and Web classrooms this Fall.

---- What does Writable do? ----

Teachers can:
+ Manage ongoing instructional writing practice tied to their units and goals
+ Motivate more accountable writing with structured peer review tied to core writing skills
+ Scaffold the writing process with structured, student-friendly checklists that continually reinforce teacher rubrics
+ Confer more effectively and reach struggling writers earlier with a real-time student progress dashboard

Students can:
+ Choose from engaging image or video-rich prompts
+ Stay on track with writing, review and revision goals in the student dashboard
+ Learn how to give and receive more effective peer feedback using comment stems
+ Earn recognition as they become better reviewers and revisers

---- What Educators are Saying ----

"Even with the ability to track changes in a word processor and review rough drafts, our students writing processes have – until now – been largely invisible. Writable invites teachers to scaffold and participate in their students’ writing, response, and revision in ways we simply were unable to see before."
– Troy Hicks (@hickstro), Professor of English and Education, Central Michigan University

“Writable focuses and motivates the process of writing throughout all phases of the writers workshop model. Teachers can easily progress-monitor and students can self-assess their own development, making learning to be a better writer easier than ever.”
– Greg Garner (@classroom_tech), Instructional Coach, Friday Institute for Educational Innovation
