WORDLE!


Word Clouds in the Classroom
       By Alison Paul
What in the Wordle…is Wordle?
• Wordle is…
  – an online tool for generating “word
    clouds” from text that you provide.




       http://www.wordle.net/create
This is a word cloud, or “Wordle”
                 cloud.




*I used the USC Libraries‟ Mission Statement to create this Wordle cloud.*
You can provide text by:



  1.Inserting text
   manually.
You can provide text by:


      2. Copying
      and pasting
      text.
You can provide text by:


    3. Entering the URL
    of any blog, blog
    feed, or any other
    web page that has an
    Atom or RSS feed.
You can provide text by:



   4. Entering a
   del.icio.us user name
   to see their tags.
1.Insert text
  manually here.
2.Copy and paste
  text here.




    Enter URL here.


     Enter del.icio.us. user name here.
Bigger, Bolder Words
• The clouds give graphic emphasis to
  words that appear more frequently in
  the source text.




  The circled words appeared most frequently in my research
 paper about instruction in academic libraries: „library‟,
 „students‟, „English‟, „academic‟, & „faculty‟.
Let‟s practice!
1. Type the following Web address into
   your browser:
   http://www.wordle.net/create
2. Manually type text into the “Paste in a bunch of text” box.
*For this practice exercise, please write an introductory paragraph about
                                 yourself.




                   Manually enter text into this box. Enter text
                  about yourself: include your
                  name, interests, favorite things, words that
                  describe you, words that your friends or
                  family use to describe you, etc. …
3. Once you have finished typing, click
  the “Go” button below the text box.




          Click on me with
          your mouse!
Wordle will then generate your
         beautiful word cloud!




• Wouldn‟t this make a great icebreaker activity for a class?
• Or a business card, even?
To edit your Wordle…
Use the tabs in this toolbar or the “Randomize” feature at the
                     bottom of the screen.
Edit the color scheme of your Wordle
        using the “Color” tab.
Use the “Layout” tab’s features to edit
 the physical layout of your Wordle.
Use the “Font” tab to change your Wordle‟s
font. Or click the “Randomize” button to see
        randomly generated designs!
When you are finished and ready
    to output your work…
Three ways to output your Wordle:
• As a printout
  – Use the “Print” button feature.
• Link to webpage to be viewed in a public
  gallery
  – Click the “Save to public gallery” button
• Manually screen capture it and create a
  digital image.
  – Here is a link to a video on how:
     • http://youtu.be/PE-5BD474cw
To print your Wordle   To save your cloud to the
                       public gallery
Wordle clouds…
•   Are visual representations of text!
•   Put emphasis on keywords!
•   Are aesthetically pleasing!
•   Are fun to create!
•   Can serve educational purposes!
• Can be applied in many ways in
  instruction!
Wordle in the Classroom
• Example 1: Literary analysis
  – Copy and paste the text of a poem.




                            * The Raven, by Edgar Allan Poe
More literary analysis…
• Enter text from a chapter or an excerpt
  from a book




        *An excerpt from James Joyce‟s Ulysses
Analyze text from a blog or
discussion board that is relevant
         to your class.




  * Here I used the URL for my Session Topic Tour Guide blog
Analyze a Speech




* For this I copied and pasted the text of Dr. Martin Luther
King, Jr.‟s I Have a Dream speech
Have your class create word
clouds for the Dewey Decimal
    Classification System




  The 200s, Dewey Decimal System
Word Clouds: The Sky‟s the
            Limit!
