What’s Changed Since 2020
If you last used Seesaw in 2020, the platform you remember barely resembles what exists today. During the rush of remote learning, Seesaw became a lifeline for teachers and families — but the innovation didn’t stop when schools returned to the classroom.
In the last three years, Seesaw has undergone the most significant transformation in its history. From AI-powered tools to LMS-level workflows and real-time insights, the Seesaw of 2025 is a completely redesigned platform built for today’s K–5 classrooms.
Here’s what’s new — and why so many former customers are coming back.
1. Seesaw Is Now an AI-Enhanced Learning Platform
Seesaw has integrated AI in ways that truly support teachers, not replace them.
AI tools include:
- AI Activity Generation: instantly generate age-appropriate, standards-aligned activities.
- AI Feedback Assistance: help teachers give meaningful, personalized feedback in seconds.
- AI Support for Instructional Coaches: track patterns in student work to guide PLCs.
Why this matters: Teachers save hours each week while delivering richer learning experiences.

Seesaw now provides LMS-level structure without sacrificing its intuitive, kid-friendly design.
New LMS features include:

Seesaw is no longer “just a portfolio tool.” It’s the fully modernized K–5 LMS districts have been waiting for.

Leaders asked to see more of what’s happening in classrooms. Seesaw delivered.
Insights Dashboards provide:
- Visibility into student learning across classrooms
- Progress trends over time

- Evidence portfolios for MTSS
This wasn’t available during the COVID era — it’s all new.
4. More Content. More Alignment. More Grade-Level Support.
Seesaw’s content library is completely rebuilt with new ELA, math, science, and SEL collections.
Additions include:
- Standards-aligned lessons

Teachers get instant, high-quality content aligned to district curriculum.
