Special thanks to Gustavo Urdaneta, a professor in the Spanish Department, for recommending this app.
SeeSaw is an easy to use, online journaling and portfolio application. The many features allows faculty and students to use the app in many different ways. Professor Urdaneta is using it to allow his students more language practice time and to deliver practice material. At the end of the term, both he and his students can see their progress through the semester.
SeeSaw’s features:
ePORTFOLIO – Students can “show what they know” using photos, videos, drawings, text, PDFs, and links. You can also import directly from most popular apps.
JOURNALS ARE ORGANIZED AND ACCESSIBLE – When students add to their Seesaw journal, content is uploaded, organized by student, and immediately accessible to teachers from any device. Browse work from the entire class, or for a single student. Optionally, use folders to organize work by subject area or project.
ENCOURAGE DEEPER LEARNING AND REFLECTION – Seesaw helps capture the learning process, not just the end result. Students can use Seesaw’s built-in audio recording, drawing and caption tools to reflect on what they’ve learned or explain how they got their answer.
STUDENT BLOGGING HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER – Seesaw Blogs are a simple way to share a selection of work from students’ Seesaw portfolios on a public class blog, giving students a broader, global audience for their learning.
