Every month Educational Technology and Mobile Learning features a short list of the best iPad apps for students. We pick these apps from the different review lists we did before and our selection is based on the app productivity, its rating, popularity and whether or not it conforms to our evaluation criteria or not. We are being very strict in our selections because the apps market is full of junk and if you don't try an app and attest to its usability then chances are you might end up recommending junk to readers.

Create word cloud graphics containing lists of words, vocabulary, or names, or generate a word cloud from a popular text. It is recommended that you create the list of word in a word processor (Word) so you can save the list (in case you wish to edit and regenerate the word cloud later). Copy and paste the list into Wordle and have fun generating just the right combination for the right effect. The more often a word is listed the bigger it will be in the cloud. Using a ~ between words identifies it as a phrase and will keep the words together in the cloud.
