Tell your story with Sway

Are you tired of predictable PowerPoint presentations seeping into meetings? Especially those with added sound and image effects. Save your office from boredom and convince your colleagues to start using Microsoft’s Sway.

Office Sway is a presentation program and part of the Microsoft Office family of products.  Microsoft markets it as a “digital storytelling app”. On a practical level the software can be utilised to create presentations, reports, newsletters, etc.

Apart from adding your static content, Sway allows you to add interactive content such as videos and charts. You also don’t have to worry about formatting or design – Sway does it for you. Users can pull content locally from the device in use, or from internet sources such as Bing, OneDrive, YouTube, and Facebook. Additionally it suggests relevant images, videos and tweets you might want to add to your presentation.

Sway is available as a downloadable app for Windows 10, iPhone and iPad or as part of the Office online package. Keep in mind that Windows 10 is not yet used on campus PCs, but you can install it on your home PC.
