Students Switching Seesaw Classes, Changes in Canvas, CogAt, and More!

 

Seesaw:

If you have students who just joined your class for second semester, you can add them to your Seesaw class using the +Students button near the bottom of the teacher screen in Seesaw, or by giving the new students a class code, which can also be found using the +Students button.

If you have students that have left your class after first semester, you CAN delete them from your Seesaw class. HOWEVER, deleting them will also lose their work they completed while in your class. To remove a student from your Seesaw class, click on the wrench in upper right corner of your Seesaw screen. Next, select "Manage Students". Then click on the student's name. Finally, click on the red rectangle near the bottom of the window: "Remove Student from Class".
