  Wordle is a pre-training online tool that generates "word clouds" from words you choose. The clouds give more prominence to words that emerge more often in the text. You can modify clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. You can use wordle as a pre-reading strategy, concept maps, or visual for brainstorming concepts with students. It is easy to utilize and fun to work with. This was the basic site, but it lead to YouTube videos which gave tutorials on how to use wordle. You can also embed the word cloud into your blog.
