After reviewing Wordle and Tagxedo websites, I find it both very interesting and very similar.
Wordle is word cloud with relevant texts and it can be very artistic. What can it be used for the classroom? I think it would be good for history, social studies, reading, math, language arts and science classes that the students can choose a important word and have it expanded with relevant words forming a artistic cloud. Good way to help students learn new words!
Tagxedo is a word cloud with art and pictures...it is almost similar to Wordle concept. It would be good for classroom that they can choose a picture and find texts that relates with the picture then form words picture. It can be saved and printed out.
I find both of these wonderful tool and it would help them expand their minds. It can be used to put up on posters or garments! It is endless possibilities!
