Best Practices for Using Frames in Seesaw Creative Tools

🌟 Want to see frames in action? Take a look at the lessons in the Seesaw Library collection.🌟

When using frames, consider what insights you can't gain from a traditional paper worksheet, and how you might use frames to gather meaningful insights from your students. Below are some best practices to help you get started!

When to use the Microphone frame
Use the microphone frame when you want to see students interacting with the canvas. This is useful when students are explaining their thought process or work (for example, explaining the solution to a maths problem).

When to use the Voice frame
Use the voice frame when students are sharing their thoughts or opinions, asking questions, or narrating. Note: Once students record their voice, a “Listen” box will appear with their audio attached.

Student Choice
Give students the opportunity to demonstrate their learning in a way that suits them by offering tool options to show their understanding. More verbal students may choose to use the video tool, while others may prefer to take a photo and explain their knowledge using text.
