Provides a direct line of communication with my son's teacher

Reviewed on 2022/03/09

Pros

I receive updates all day long in real-time regarding my son's progress and classroom activity
Together my son and I can access his assignments anytime to correct and resubmit

Cons

It's sometimes difficult to navigate. We were not given training on the software, so occasionally I have to fumble around to find the options I need to use

Great tool for parents and students

Reviewed on 2022/09/01

Great tool for both teachers and families

Great tool for both teachers and families

Pros

Seesaw is a great learning tool. Students have a portfolio that they continue to create over they elementary years. It is easy for students to access and share their work. It is a safe way to share information with parents. and keep a digital copy of students learning growth over the years. It is helpful that parents only get to see their child's work to protect the privacy of the rest of the classroom.

Cons

The stream is challenging to navigate it would be better if there could be tabs of folders to keep things organized. It is babyish for older students. although advertised, it is not really usable with middle and high school students.

It's excellent, and has allowed us to bring parents into the classroom experience. It has also helped massively with remote learning. Products like Teams are too advanced for out primary aged children. Seesaw has the perfect level of communication and interaction, along with the ability to create, submit and feedback on pupil work.

Pros

Schools are a black box for most parents. Seesaw allows them to see what's happening in class, almost as it happens, and give praise and feedback now hat they see (if we allow). Evidencing all those little things that otherwise aren't written down is easy.

Cons

The video uploading can be flakey, especially from iPad.

Reasons for Switching to Seesaw

The ease of use for our children, and the ease of management oversight.

Seesaw is hard work for parents

Reviewed on 2022/10/04

Pros

Allows teachers to keep in touch with parents on a daily basis using photos, messages and uploading homework tasks

Cons

It is difficult to understand where to find things that teachers have posted and un-intuitive. The design is poor. I don't enjoy having to use it daily, as it takes effort and could be much smoother.

I have used SeeSaw as a parent with a child in school and as an admin. As an admin, it's alright. It is difficult to pull things up sometimes and you have to know how you want things to go out but as a parent I liked it allot!

Pros

I like that it is well known, a free app for parents, and that it gives a great avenue to keep parents up to date.

Cons

I don't like that it seems to have software kinks and isn't totally user friendly on the admin side. I wish it had a better look and that you could have an admin log in on the app.
