Seesaw Instruction & Insights: Digital Portfolios (CA)

Digital Portfolios

Capture Evidence of Learning to Gather Learning Artifacts

Track growth year-over-year from TK-5th grade (and beyond) with Seesaw’s digital portfolios. Work done inside or outside of Seesaw can be captured to monitor progress and hear student reflections on their learning. Video and screen recordings provide visibility and insights into student thinking, so teachers can pinpoint student needs and personalize instruction. Digital portfolios demonstrate proficiency beyond traditional assessments and support special education documentation and parent-teacher interviews.

Three Simple Ways to Capture Student Learning

I teach a variety of students, from TK all the way to fifth grade, who include over 15 different languages. I love having Seesaw to differentiate in so many ways. Students love going back through their portfolios to see their own growth.”
