Sway Course Syllabus COURSE DESCRIPTION This course prepares teachers to use Microsoft’s fabulous presentation tool, Sway. With this user-friendly application, instructors and students can take ownership of their innovative content while allowing their creativity to permeate through a multimedia-rich canvas. How-to tutorial videos, articles, blogs, and documentaries will encourage teachers and students alike to focus on academic content, rather than on the logistics of the presentation platform. In turn, educators can implement Sway into their curriculum, enabling students to create content, style and layout of all their ideas in one place.
