In ECO II, we have been trying 'Wordle' (http://www.wordle.net/) and making our owm Word Clouds! I already posted some word clouds in previous posts, but this time I would like you to try this tool.
It's a fantastic way to teach vocabulary and topics, specially to children and teens.
You can create and play guessing games by providing all the related names from a category and your mates have to guess what the category is, for example: the picture of the eco car is made of words related to ecology.
You only need to enter www.wordle.net and go to 'Create your own', then you paste your own bunch of words and press 'Go'. You can choose colour and designs, it's really fun!
Also, for word clouds' shapes like the pictures shown, you can visit Tagxedo word cloud creator.
See you!

Hi Anto! It's really interesting the different uses one can gives to this application and the variety of designs available, and I think this kind of applications could have an interesting impact on students, of course possitively.
