 Welcome to CESA. CESA creates a learning loop where teachers, administrators, students and families become partners. Let's get you set up now so you can see into your child's learning experience and help support and celebrate their growth. How do I get connected? You can either download the CESA app from the App Store or if you're ever on a desktop, just type app.CESA.me in a web browser. There are three types of invitations you might receive to connect to your child's CESA journal. Paper. Check your child's backpack for the handout with details on how to connect. Email. Search for an email from CESA with an invite link. Text. Look for a text message with a link to accept the invite to view your student's journal. The invite tells you what to do or follow along with me. For paper invites, open CESA. Tap I'm a family member. Never used CESA before? Tap create family account. Hold up the QR code to your camera or enter the custom URL from the invite. Make sure you're connecting to your child. Tap create account and type your info. Already have a family account? Tap I'm a family member and sign in. On the top left, tap your profile icon. Tap add child's journal. Scan the QR code. Hold up your code to your camera and confirm. For email and text invites, tap the link. Then follow the steps to create an account if you're brand new or sign in if you already have one. That's it! Who can see my child's work? Now hold up. Don't worry. Your child's privacy is CESA's top priority. Your child's work is safe on CESA and can only be seen by their teacher, their classmates, and you. If you want anyone to see your child's journal, like your nana, your child's teacher can invite them. Up to 10 people can be connected, but only those people can see your child's work. There are a lot of cool ways to engage on the CESA app. Of course, you can see your child's amazing learning. See all recent posts in home or click journal to see posts by child and class. If the teacher allows, you might be able to like or comment on posts. You know kids love that. Anyone who sees your child's journal can see your comments too. Remember how I said CESA creates a learning loop? You can communicate with the teacher on CESA too. Tap on the messages icon to engage in two-way communication between school and home. You'll get whole class announcements and you can message with the teacher. When you need to say something to the teacher, do it here in the very private CESA messages. In your messages with the teacher, you can even use the CESA tools to add an attachment to share all the learning that is going on at home. And if your device is set to a language other than English, you'll see the option to translate typed text. Just click translate with Google. Reply in your preferred language and the teacher will see the same option. I can't wait for you to experience the power of CESA to engage with your child's learning and create partnerships with their school community. All of this helps lay the foundation for success in your child's life. Thank you for all you do, families. See you next time.
