Wordle - Beautiful Word Clouds - 0 views

  •  
    Tool for creating word clouds. Great for any type of class.
  •  
    Wordle is a toy for generating "word clouds" from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

Catching Up with High-Tech Kids - 0 views

      Doh! Instant messaging answers for computerized tests! Gotta think about that one. Ugh.
  • the school district chose to start an educational campaign. High school drama students created public service announcements that aired during morning announcements emphasizing the dangers of sharing private information online and the permanency of this information for college admissions counselors and future employers. Classes were offered for staff, parents, and the community, educating them on how kids are using technology and how they can talk to them. They saw immediate results; student postings online were suddenly more appropriate, teachers proactively worked to prevent misuse of technology, and parents and adults from the community attended classes and began discussing technology use with their children.
