Seesaw: The Learning Journal

Description

Features of Seesaw: The Learning Journal:

It is easy to capture student learning in any form
* Students can use pictures, videos, drawings, text notes, links to show what they know.
* When students add to their Seesaw log, content is downloaded, organized by the student and immediately available to teachers from any device.
* Teachers can view work from the entire class or for one student. If you want, use folders to organize work on the subject area or project.
* Teachers can mark subjects for follow-up or for consideration at conferences of parents and teachers.

Entry parameters that work for all ages
* Junior students or classrooms with shared devices can enter using QR code. Senior students can sign in with their existing Google account.

Encourage reflection and provide an authentic audience
* Seesaw helps to cover the learning process not only with the end result. Students can use Seesaw's built-in writing and drawing tools to reflect on what they have learned, or to explain how they got the answer.
* Seesaw gives students an authentic audience of their peers and parents, encouraging better work and real feedback. Teachers can control who can see, and what feedback options are available, for example, like and comments.

Strengthening the links between school and home
* Include families in the learning process by inviting them to view the updates in Seesaw's journal of their child. Recent visual updates of Seesaw are really perceived by parents, encouraging students and cross-language barriers.
Teachers approve all new additions and comments before sharing anything with their parents.
