Digital Scribe

The Digital Scribe allows teachers to place student work and homework assignments on their school website without having to bother the IT Personnel.

Teachers have full control through a web-based interface. Designed for easy installation and even easier use, the Digital Scribe has been used in thousands of schools. No teacher or IT Personnel needs to know any computer languages in order to install and use this intuitive system.

Features:

Put Student Work Online

The Digital Scribe can be used to display student work. Teachers register, create a project, and add student work. Students or teachers can submit poems, essays, reports, and photographs (.jpg format) and drawings (.gif format).

Teachers have full control over what is shown and what isn't. Like every feature, this is completely controlled through a web-based interface and no knowledge of HTML or other programming languages is needed. This is the Digital Scribe's oldest and most advanced feature.

Put Homework Assignments Online

The Digital Scribe can be used to display a class's homework assignments. Teachers register, add their class(es), and add the homework assignments for the class. The assignments are then publicly posted and organized by date due. Like every feature, this is completely controlled through a web-based interface and no knowledge of HTML or other programming languages is needed.

Put School News Online

The Digital Scribe can post your school bulletin, newsletter, or other announcements online. The secretary registers and types in the announcement. This is the most straightforward feature of the Digital Scribe. Like every feature, this is completely controlled through a web-based interface and no knowledge of HTML or other programming languages is needed.

Easy Installation and Administration

Anyone who has access to a server running PHP and MySQL (both common, free programs) can install the Digital Scribe. One you've entered the server's database name, username, and password, any additional changes can be done through a web-based interface. The Digital Scribe will automatically setup the database and walk you through customizing the program for your school.

All administration tasks are done through a web-based interface. You can manage teacher and announcement user accounts and customize the program without delving into the database. In fact, you should never need to directly modify the database. The look and feel of the web pages can be changed by editing four files, all available through the administrative area.
