Two years ago, I was introduced to a learning/communication app called Seesaw. Seesaw has become an invaluable tool in my classroom. My students are able to take pictures, videos, voice record, and manipulate drawing tools on the Seesaw app. My students' thinking has come alive through Seesaw.
Imagine being nine years old, having a true desire to show off your school work and then having to wait patiently to gain access to do so. It is frustrating to say the least.
Using Seesaw, students took pictures of their work and then added a voice recording or telestration (like a sportscaster) to explain their thinking process. They've created their own video tutorials teaching various topics. My English language learners were able to record their thoughts and listen back to improve their language skills. At the same time, the students' families were able to see their work and communicate with them. It promotes conversation and bridges the gap between home and school.
Having more iPads in my classroom would give more students access to learning apps and the ability to refine their twenty-first century technology skills.
