When we’re selecting new tools and curriculum, we look at it through the lens of the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework. Seesaw’s curriculum really supports UDL in the different ways students can learn new concepts, engage with the content, and express their learning.

Support Multilingual Learners with multiple ways to practice and improve speaking, listening, reading, and writing

  • Students use audio recording, video, and screen recording tools to practice without the pressure of performing in front of others.
  • Audio inputs make grade-level content, complex ideas, and new vocabulary accessible, which drives language acquisition.
  • Portfolios allow reflection and self-review – a powerful learning experience that builds ownership, motivation, and confidence

“Providing Seesaw lessons on a tablet has been a game-changer for students who are easily distracted by a small tear on their paper, or something not photocopied exactly right, a dull pencil or one without an eraser. Students with vision challenges can make the screen brighter and use the magnifying tool to zoom in.”
