Microsoft Sway is a free tool created by Microsoft that allows you to create and share engaging, interactive presentations, personal stories, and more. It is an easy-to-use digital storytelling app that has easy to use built-in features that helps you create professional designs in minutes. With Sway, your images, text, videos, and other multimedia all come together in a way that enhances a story. Students will learn through hands on activities how to create their own Sway presentation. They will create a presentation, digital resume, blog post, book trailer or portfolio. Class time is structured into two parts: demo and hands on activities. I will walk them step by step on how to access Sway.com, create a presentation and modify the presentation to their satisfaction. They will also learn tips and tricks for presenting their presentation to others.
Learning Goals
1. Students will investigate various uses for Microsoft Sway from presentations to blogging to ePortfolio to invitations.
2. Students will create a Sway presentation.
3. Students will add text and media such as pictures, audio and video files and documents to their Sway.
4. Students will learn how to share their Sway presentations for others to view (i.e. parents, teachers or class groups).
Other Details
Parental Guidance
In this class, we will be using a third-party tool (Microsoft Sway). It is an online tool that requires a free Microsoft account. You will need to create an email account or log into your Microsoft account online and I will walk them through how to access Sway. Through Sway they will have access to YouTube (no account required), Flickr, Pickit, and Bing images.
Supply List
Students should have access to Sway, a free online tool. Parents will need to sign up for a free Microsoft account (hotmail, outlook, msn, live) and access Sway at www.sway.com before class. They will also need index cards and a pencil.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Maryland Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I’m a veteran educator (20 years) and certified Microsoft trainer and as such have worked with many students, teachers and schools in implementing technology into the classroom learning. Most institutions fail to provide training to the students who need tech literacy skills to be successful in future work. This session prepares students to create professional presentations and practicing communication/presentation skills.
