Accessibility Philosophy
Seesaw is passionate about providing learners with diverse ways to demonstrate and share their learning. Our intuitive tools allow students to use photos, videos, voice, text, and more to showcase their understanding. For example, they can photograph written work, record videos of reading aloud, type or draw responses, or use our Draw+Record tool to narrate their thought process during math problems.
Teachers can also offer multiple modes of instruction. They can add voice or video instructions to lessons or announcements to support pre-readers and visually impaired students. Text labels, captions, and closed captions can be used for hearing-impaired students and families. Teachers can differentiate instruction by assigning tailored lessons or activities to different students.
For students or family members using assistive technologies, please add captions or voice captions to all multimedia posts.
To foster a strong learning community, teachers, students, and family members can leave voice and text comments on student work. Seesaw also offers translation features for teachers and families who speak different languages.
These features enhance understanding, allow personalized expression of learning, and build a supportive learning loop among students, educators, and families.
We are committed to improving the accessibility of Seesaw for diverse learners and families. Seesaw complies with WCAG 2.1 AA standards. For limitations and alternatives, please refer to our Accessibility Statement.
