We use Seesaw to assign e-learning assignments as well as in class work. I love how I can send home a QR code at the beginning of the year and parents can instantly access their child's work.

Pros

I like the ease of use. I can search from a wide variety of lessons that are included in the library and easily assign it to my class. I also like how certain assignments can grade themselves.

Cons

I don't like how I can't see all my accounts on one homepage and I have to instead log into the accounts separately. I have a teacher account and my own children have their own class account. I would love to be able to toggle between accounts easier.

Fantastic! I use to give my students practice assignments everyday and test their learning.

Pros

I like the ability to communicate with parents easily and the assessment feature is amazing!

Cons

I love all aspects! However, I would like our current reading program, Wonders, to sync with Seesaw automatically.

Seesaw has more features like the ability to use assessments that grade automatically and it is way more user friendly.

Seesaw has been a great asset to our school district. It was a great form of communication with parents during Covid. As well as assigning work to students during distance learning and continuing now.

Great way of connecting with families as I don't always have a phone (numerous buildings throughout the day).

Pros

Great way to connect with parents/caregivers.

Cons

I'm a related service, and it is time consuming to add each individual student/family.

Seesaw is a wonderful platform to use in the classroom with younger learners to get them excited to share with their families about learning.

Pros

Seesaw is easy to use for teachers, students and parents. It’s a way to capture their learning in the classroom and sharing it with stakeholders. It’s amazing!

Cons

I have a harder time managing the folders and getting my students to organize things.

It has been wonderful as a teacher and as a parent to be able to have seesaw.

Pros

Seesaw gives the students a platform to reflect on their learning. This is an often overlooked aspect of education. It also keeps parents connected to whats going on in their students classroom.

Cons

Sometimes, if the students are not trained well, it becomes just a fun place to mess around.

I love using seesaw in my room with the upgraded option. The free option does not give enough options to make use worthwhile in the classroom.

Pros

I love the ability to assign my students personalized assignments to fit their individual needs!

Cons

I can no longer utilize all of the wonderful tools seesaw provides as they have taken away individual teacher memberships and increased costs to district memberships, which are entirely too expensive for an individual teacher to purchase. Thus leaving it in the hands of districts to decide whether seesaw is beneficial or not.
