Seesaw Pros

Fantastic but in need of an updateI am in year 5 and almost in year 6. I have been using seesaw since the start of year 4 and it had been an excellent way to display our work and to just have a bit of fun. It has come to my attention many times that seesaw should have notifications when someone posts a post on seesaw. Otherwise this is a fantastic app and I 100% recommend it for any classroom. I hope this is included in a future update..ETI-10Version: 6.1

Best Educational App Bar NoneI am an experienced teacher, and I’ve been using Seesaw for years. It’s always been wonderful. It is the most helpful technological tool I’ve ever used by FAR! It’s always been fantastic, but they are always making improvements, and they respect teacher input. Since the pandemic, they have been incredible-dealing with an influx of new users and going above and beyond to meet ever increasing needs. I never want to stop using Seesaw. It’s excellent for virtual teaching and face to face teaching. It’s got outstanding tools and features for teachers, AND it’s user friendly for teachers and students. I use it with Kindergarten students, and they get the hang of it so quickly. They love it. It’s engaging and fun, but it truly enhances and improves their learning. The people at Seesaw truly want to do the best that they can for teachers and students. It is by far the best technology I’ve ever used in the classroom..Not PicassoVersion: 7.5.2

Great tool… but what about french?I looove this tool. Is is complete, simple and fun for my students. The only thing, is that this year, I teach french as a second language. Using this app, in english, would be controversial. Are you working on a french option? I would also suggest the option to translate the messages in many languages, so parents from an other country can understand. 😉.CyngriaVersion: 8.1.0

Needs ability to zoom imagesOur teachers send images of work for the student but the app doesn’t not allow you to zoom in so you can see the image larger or more clearly. That just seems basic and this app doesn’t do it..MohninmeVersion: 6.1
