I tried out a new site for making word clouds today. As with many of these sites, Tagul allows you to simply copy and paste text or link directly to a website (I used this blog as the link) to create your cloud. What I like about it is that it creates a word cloud that you can then link to a google search of the word you click on in the cloud. You can also specify a site rather than a google search. Kinda cool! See the results below:
Do you think you could use something like this in your classroom to start a discussion on a particular topic or have students analyze the frequency of particular words in their own writing? Other ideas?
