Seesaw allows students to use built-in annotation tools to capture their activities into a digital portfolio. While students are working and writing down ideas, they can record their voices in real-time so teachers can see and hear their thought process as they progress. This program is perfect for a distance learning environment where a lot of the work is done offline.
