Cathy's Reflection on the Group Tag Cloud - 4 views

  Well, I noticed that EDTEC 448 was the most prevalent tag, which was good since it should be - that is what bonds us all together. Resources was next which I think is a great tag and now I am wondering if that would have been a good classification term in our tag dictionary. Student Online Activities was also up there at the top and that is one of our tag dictionary terms. Other tags from our dictionary that were in the top part of the tag cloud were: networking, assessments, objectives, and lesson plan sites. Although I noticed that some of us were tagging with lesson plan sites and others with lesson plans sites so that one little letter split up that one group which would have made that a bigger group and further up on the list. The same happened with site elements and siteelements. This was one category that, for me, I was unsure of. I didn't quite know what the other members were considering to be site elements sites. Timesavers fell in the middle of the cloud and Wrap Up Activities was in the bottom group. Maybe that particular category in our classification system should be reconsidered since it doesn't seem that many of us use it as a tag for classifying our sites - ???
  As the group members add sites to our group this tag cloud will change and may come to reflect our tag dictionary more closely, but as of Friday afternoon, this is where we stand! I love the information that our group tag cloud provides. Sorting alphabetically or by frequency was also very useful. Diigo definitely offers many useful tools for both individual purposes and group collaboration.
