In this episode of the Learning Loop podcast, we interview Ben Kovacs, a K-5 technology teacher in Chicago Public Schools. Ben highlights how Seesaw is used effectively in CPS classrooms across devices and grade levels. He shares the standards-aligned lessons, immediacy of feedback, and reflective tools as key features to how Seesaw has made a home in CPS. 

Ben emphasizes the importance of reflection in Seesaw. He advises keeping student activities short and focused, allowing equal time for student exploration and peer sharing. This builds classroom community, elevates student work, and facilitates a growth mindset. Ben’s advice for educators is to start simple and maximizing reflective components in Seesaw.
