Cross-Curricular ICT
One of the fantastic opportunities that SeeSaw provides is instant feedback to groups of children, or individuals, in both visual and audio format. This feedback is sent, in my classes case, directly to the parents who can then see what they have to reinforce, or, more frequently, to celebrate the achievements of the child. How do you find the time?The most common question asked, and yes, initially it starts off being time consuming until... a) The children get used to the routine - They will grasp things quickly and understand what is happening and relish the opportunity to be part of it. b) You have a few devices to use. - Getting the children to upload to their accounts while you record another person speeds things up, my children have learnt to hunt me down with a device as I'm working with others! c) You target individuals. - You can't expect to get all the kids done all the time - but you can target groups and ensure that everyone has something over time. d) They take control of their own uploads - Getting the children to learn how to use the QR codes to then upload their own content to look at later. Content needs to be approved so will stay unseen until it is. I'd rather talk to the children...Great! You are! With the additional benefit of making what you've said available after the event to reflect on further, should they wish. If linked to the parents they can then help support immediately after the event, again should they choose to.

AuthorI've had a passion for ICT and its use in education over a number of years. With the exciting development of Moble Technology entering the classroom, it's a perfect opportunity to try new things out and enhance our pupils, and teachers, experiences! Archives
