Digitize Student Portfolios with Seesaw

September 12, 2016

Paper portfolios, a staple in the classroom for many years, provide insight into self-reflection and personal growth. However, digital portfolios have become a natural extension with notable benefits such as embedded hyperlinks, easy updating, and broad accessibility.

Finding a tool online that is easy to navigate, available on any platform and has NO COST is often the challenge. That is, until Seesaw, the learning journal app/site, came along.

Watch this video to see:

• Students of all ages independently documenting their learning.
  Students capturing learning digitally.
• Students and teachers accessing the portfolio from any device.
• Students sharing their work with classmates, parents, and on a class blog.

For more information:

• Watch the Video Introduction of Seesaw for Teachers and follow along with the presentation.
