Chrisman and Wade Present on Using Sway to Teach Multi-Literacy

In a continuing effort to the link technological tools and systems we already have in place to practical course activities and student learning outcomes, John Chrisman, an instructor of English, has been working with Jonathan Wade, the Senior Educational Technologist in the Coulter Faculty Commons to use Microsoft Sway, a free micro-website designer integrated into the Office365 suite, as a multi-media communication platform for his composition students.  On Friday, October 28th, Chrisman and Wade will be presenting their work at a conference at UNCC.

Feel free to join us virtually by visiting the Sway below:
