2010 March Activities

 

This year we will explore different Web 2.0 tools to enhance our learning. Below you will find our monthly activities. Please bear in mind that the action takes place in our NING http://arcallmashup.ning.com/

 

 

March: Creating word clouds

Our topic this month is Creating Word Clouds with Wordle, Image Chef, Word it out and ABCya!

Many teachers are already using Word Clouds in their classroom. Let´s read about their wonderful ideas:

 

12 Word Cloud Resources, Tips, & Tools by Shelly Terrell

 

Tech Tools & Pedagogy II – Word Clouds by Marisa Constantinides (check "A quick comparison chart"

 

Using Word Magnets in the ESL classroom by Russell Stannard

Using WordSift in the ESL classroom by Russell Stannard

Are you using any of these tools in your classroom? How would you integrate these tools?

Our main idea is to discuss the pedagogical use of these tools.

Regards

Jennifer

Great work!!, Nelba and Jennifer. I really hope the seed you're planting, may grow everywhere. Our schools , our teachers and our students NEED some fresh air. Some people only see the dark side of the Internet , you're showing the most important one.
The video is fantastic, a lot of food for thought. THANKS

Hi Jennifer,

Just wanted to say that I showed the Brave New World video to the participants on the Cert IBET course I'm moderating at the moment and they loved it too. Many thanks for fishing this from cyberspace for us. Keep up the great work!
