From time to time we like to highlight interesting opportunities outside the ebook world. We are going to do that today by looking at Seesaw.
Seesaw is a student driven digital portfolio and parent communication tool.
For Students: Seesaw empowers students to independently document their learning and provides an authentic audience for their work—their peers, parents, or the world. With built-in content creation tools, like photos, videos, drawings, voice recordings, text notes, PDFs, links and integrations with 1000s of other apps, students can demonstrate their learning in the way that works best for them.
For Families: Seesaw gives parents an immediate and personalized window into their child’s school day, helping to answer: “What did you do at school today?”. Through the Seesaw parent app and website, parents can view their child’s work, leave comments, and really understand how their child is progressing. Seesaw also provides automatic notifications for parents about new work for their child – so they can stay in the loop wherever they are!
For Teachers: Seesaw saves teachers time on organization and parent communication, makes formative assessment easy, and provides a safe place to teach 21st Century skills. In a 2015 survey of teachers who used Seesaw actively in their classroom, 92% report an increase in parent involvement and engagement since using Seesaw.
