* [[Spinoza]] provided his own scholia to many of the propositions in his ''[[Ethics (Spinoza)|Ethics]]'', commentaries upon and expansions of the individual propositions, or sometimes short conclusions to sections of argumentation running over a number of propositions.
* In modern mathematics texts, scholia are marginal notes which may amplify a line of reasoning or compare it with proofs given earlier. A famous example is [[Thomas Bayes|Bayes]]' scholium, in which he presents a justification for assuming a [[continuous uniform distribution]] for the [[Prior distribution|prior]] of the parameter of a [[Bernoulli process]].<ref>{{cite journal |author=Murray, F. H. |title=Note on a scholium of Bayes |journal=[[Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society]] |date=February 1930 |url=https://projecteuclid.org:443/euclid.bams/1183493827 |accessdate=January 3, 2018 |number=2 |pages=129–132 |publisher=American Mathematical Society |volume=36 |doi=10.1090/s0002-9904-1930-04907-1}}</ref> Another famous example of a somewhat different use is to be found in [[Brook Taylor]]'s ''Methodus Incrementorum'', in which the propositions demonstrated are often followed by a scholium which further explains the significance of the proposition.
* ''Scholia'' is an academic journal in the field of [[classical studies]].<ref>[http://www.otago.ac.nz/Classics/scholia/ ''Scholia''], [http://www.classics.und.ac.za/reviews/ ''Scholia'' reviews] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010701084036/http://www.classics.und.ac.za/reviews/ |date=1 July 2001 }}</ref>
