Encouraging students to share their voice and express their learning in relevant ways is critical to today’s diverse classrooms.

We also show you a student favorite: Sway, an easy-to-use digital storytelling app for creating interactive reports, presentations, personal stories and more.

Additionally, educational technology can provide ways for the teacher to collect work samples and data from multiple students simultaneously and allow for individualized feedback.
