Audience: Teachers
Seesaw journals are private by default. Journals are only accessible to teachers, students in the class, and a student's family if the teacher chooses to invite them. If family members have concerns for their child's privacy, teachers can follow the below additional guidelines.
If a family member is concerned about their child's privacy, you can observe the following additional guidelines for that child:
- Do not post group photos that include the child
- Do not tag the child in posts that include any other members of the class.
- Only invite the child's primary family to view their journal and do not invite other family members
- Refrain from posting photos of the child, and instead focus on photos of their school work
- Do not post that child's work to the blog (if you have turned on the blog for your class)
Teachers can turn off family sharing in Class Settings. To do this:
- Tap the wrench icon.
- Navigate to Families > Family likes, comments & sharing.
- Toggle Enable Family Sharing OFF.
When family sharing is disabled, families will not have the ability to download any posts onto their device or share any posts over social media.
