3 Ways to Collect Digital Student Work

Of course many teachers would want their students to have Google Drive accounts or Microsoft 365 accounts, but this is surprisingly not the case in many school districts. While some teachers may use LMS systems to solve this issue, today, I wanted to share with you some of my favorite ways to collect digital student work. To often teachers will shy away from student digital creation, as it becomes cumbersome to "collect" or view. I am here to tell you that it doesn't have to be this way.

Without further adieu here are 3 Ways to Collect Digital Student Work 



1. Seesaw

Seesaw is a digital portfolio system that allows students to show what they know. With a free teacher account, students can be tied to a class and are able to login with a QR code or Google account. Teachers can provide assignments or students can create and link their projects to the teacher and/or other students. Check out more about uses as a digital collection tool here.




2. Google Forms

Google forms have been around for awhile and no doubt we have all filled out a form that someone was using for survey purposes. Well, with a Drive account, you can just as easily sent up a Google Form (survey) as a place to collect digital project links. For example if your class all created Adobe Spark Videos (formally Adobe Voice), it is important to set up a way for students to turn in their final project links. It isn't helpful for all their projects to be stuck on individual iPads. Consider setting up a Google Form to collect student name and their project URL. For easy access make your Google Form link into a tinyurl or bookmark it for younger students. 



3. dropittome

dropittome is a great resource as anyone can send documents to your Dropbox, Drive or OneDrive without needing an account themselves. As you account holder you decide where you want the files to be "delivered" You create your own account and provide the URL and password to those people from whom you want to receive files. It is easy to set up and collecting digital assignments can start right away!
