Join Oliver Schinkten for an in-depth discussion in this video Empower students with Sway, part of Office 2016 for Educators.
- [Instructor] We've discussed Microsoft Sway…and how you can use it to create content and more.…In this video, let's take a quick look…at how we could empower students using Sway.…It isn't enough to have students memorizing information…and taking multiple choice tests.…It's critical for us as educators…to teach our students higher order thinking skills,…such as planning, creating, critiquing, and more.…Microsoft Sway can help with this.…Consider some of the uses that we've discussed…in the previous videos and how…you can empower students to do these.…For instance, newsletters.…
I challenge you to engage students…in a project for an authentic audience.…Have them put on a science night,…a poetry reading, a reenactment of a historical moment,…a gallery walk to show off their artwork,…or any other creative project which they'll perform…for members of the community.…This is one of the best ways to motivate your students…to step up their game, and when doing so,…empower the students to create a newsletter…or invitation to their event using Sway.…
