Week 4.3 Applications to use for writing on the various devices

I have kept you waiting for this information as I really wanted the stories to be written in rough first so that you can edit them comfortably and add the finished story to your device application. You’ll have noticed from the stories that the African Storybook Project stories are written in a presentation format on the website and they actually use PowerPoint for this. So we need to use applications that work with PowerPoint or that can be converted to PowerPoint. Suggestions:

1) Windows PCs or laptops: 

Microsoft Office PowerPoint;
Kingsoft Office PowerPoint (free Office Suite);
Google Drive Presentation


2) Apple laptops

Microsoft Office PowerPoint;
Keynote;
Google Drive Presentation,
