A **contributory scene** lets learners pin the image themselves and
see each other's work. You set the rules per scene.

## Turning it on

Select a scene, then **Let students add pins** in the right panel.
Write a prompt while you are there — "Add a pin where you notice
something worth sharing" is better than an empty canvas, and much
better than no instruction at all.

## When the class sees a contribution

- **I approve each one** — nothing appears to the class until you say
  so. Slower, and the right default for a group you do not know yet.
- **Show it straight away** — appears for everyone the moment it is
  saved. Better for live sessions, where a queue kills the momentum.

> You set this per scene. Whichever you pick, staff always see who wrote what.

## Whose name the class sees

- **Their own name** — classmates see who added each pin.
- **A nickname** — classmates see a consistent, generated nickname
  instead.

Two things about nicknames matter:

1. **The nickname is stable.** "Amber Fox" is the same person on
   Monday and on Friday, so a conversation can refer back to what
   someone said. It is stored, not recalculated.
2. **It is peer-facing only.** You and your colleagues always see the
   real name. You cannot responsibly moderate work you cannot
   attribute, and the promise made to learners is only that their
   *classmates* will not know — which is exactly what the interface
   tells them.

> Anonymous means anonymous to other learners, never to you. A learner keeps the same made-up name all the way through one experience.

## Reviewing

**Review contributions** lists everything submitted, with the real
author, ready to approve, hide or remove. The scene's panel shows a
count when something is waiting.

## Contributions and publishing

Contributions are live learner data, not part of the published
snapshot. Publishing a new version does not disturb them, and they do
not appear in an exported or embedded copy of the content.
