This week, Microsoft announced a brand new feature that allows users to easily transform any Word Doc into a beautiful website using SWAY. This process is pretty awesome and extremely to do and I highly recommend you try it out with your students today!
Quentin Cammack's curator insight, September 30, 2022 3:58 PM
Using Microsoft Sway can help you into turning a Microsoft Word document into a website or a dynamic online portfolio. This feature can even be used in the classroom by taking a document into a multi-media project or presentation that they can present to the classroom.

Emily Perdomo's curator insight, October 25, 2018 1:53 PM
R- I have previously used this source for other topics based on education and it is found to be reliable because the website brings up chats including peoples opinion but also backed up with facts. 
A-They have talked about education several times in different articles/ blogs/ chats. In this case this is a chat with parents, educators, and Microsoft experts. They feel to have experience because children they have seen have difficulty learning in the class room. Microsoft feels this is the easiest and best way for a child with dyslexia to feel conformed and confident in a classroom.
V-  Vested interest is shown because even though this is a chat room they also do have credited experts like Microsoft CEO's as well as educators and parents who might be having trouble with a child that has dyslexia. They look for chats like this for support and reliable advice to help children learn better and possibly as good as children without this disability.  They look for credibility because some (as mentioned previously) are experts so they strive to be reliable and gain viewers while helping children and people in general with this disability learn better.
E- Expertise is seen in this chat because CEO's of Microsoft that get paid to make people's lives easier and improve learning through technology are being quoted on why this is the best option along with integrating technology in classrooms. 
N- This piece is bias because it is pushing technology into schools by stating it may improve the learning patterns of kids with dyslexia by giving reasons that are supported by experts and opinions of educators that obviously work in classrooms and parents of children that dyslexia.
