Office Sway is a type of presentation tool from Microsoft.

This is a tool that the teacher can use to present the lessons. Important elements are: the flexibility, easy integration of many different files, and the sharing. Also, it is very important that students themselves use this tool to benefit their learning because they become creators.

Sway looks like a very interesting and useful app for the classroom. As a frequent digital content consumer, I like the opportunities that this app provides. Students can create reports, stories, and presentations that can showcase their learning in a beautiful and visually appealing way. Even cooler than that is the amount of possibility in creation and the redefinition of assignments that Sway allows students to take advantage of.

I have used this as a way to present information and for students to present. Overall it is a decent teaching tool. It does have some short comings. I really think it depends on what your purpose is for your presentation. If you want the students to really go in depth on a topic and add animations than PowerPoint would work better. However, if you are looking for a simplistic way to have students present information than Sway would work. Sway can be used for more complex presentations, but it lacks the editing skills that other presentation tools have. It is a great starting tool for students to use to learn how to present.
