The Way to Sway

Guest Post by Cameron Yancy

What is Sway?

Microsoft Sway is a Microsoft tool that allows you to create interactive presentations.

Start from a Topic

Sway has some really cool features that you can utilize for your students to make standard presentations work for you, not against you.  A feature you can utilize to diversify your presentations is the START FROM A TOPIC feature:

This feature allows you to enter in a specific topic (ex: Roman History) and it will generate an outline with different cards (Sway's version of slides) pertaining to the topic. (ex: Language, Military, Geography, etc..).

Note About Copyright

One thing that is not only important to Microsoft but Keller ISD is copyright. Using this outline does NOT allow students to copy the word helpers provided by Sway.  It is assumed that one using Sway would replace the information with their original work.
