Award-Winning Multimodal Tools

Empowering Students to Show What They Know

Seesaw’s intuitive, developmentally-appropriate multimodal tools empower students to showcase their work through various mediums such as photo, video, voice, text, and more. This provides all learners with accessible tools to support various learning modalities. Additionally, teachers are able to offer multiple modes of instruction for any lesson or communication.

Learning Made Visible

With Seesaw’s multimodal tools, learners have a safe space to learn, practice, and build confidence while their strengths and experiences are honored.

Tools like “draw with audio recordings” provide teachers with deep insights not possible through paper/pencil and other programs.

Multimodal tools remove barriers to learning and empower students of all ages to build and reflect on their knowledge.

Schoolwork done inside or outside of Seesaw can be captured with Seesaw and used to explain their thinking by using the multimodal tools in the format that best fits their learning style - providing student voice and choice!

“The impact was astounding! With Seesaw, our students could showcase their work in ways they hadn’t imagined before. Photos, videos, and written assignments came to life on this platform, allowing for a comprehensive view of their progress. Not only that, but Seesaw also opened up seamless communication channels between students, parents, and teachers.

- Melissa Sheffer, Fifth Grade Teacher, Pennsylvania

Engaging Every Learner

Directions are provided in multiple formats. All Seesaw lessons come with written and audio directions (in English and Spanish). Teachers can also create their own lessons or alter existing lessons to differentiate instruction.

Lessons include modeling with multiple opportunities to practice. Visual cues signal and allow pre-readers to navigate lessons with ease.

Frames and focus mode eliminate the number of tools available on the canvas, removing distractions and helping to guide students to the appropriate tools.

Formative assessments provide “practice mode” to allow students to check their work in a safe, low-stake environment.

Read-with-Me allows students to independently access text to foster the connection between spoken and written word.

Assignment flexibility allows teachers to provide students, or student groups, with additional practice, or opportunities for enrichment, to master skills.
