2:30 Technology session: 

  • qr code
QR is short for Quick Response,they can be read quickly by a cell phone. They are used to take a piece of information from a transitory media and put it in to your cell phone. You may soon see QR Codes in a magazine advert, on a billboard, a web page or even on someone’s t-shirt. Once it is in your cell phone, it may give you details about that business

Using Wordle
  1. Write some text, like an essay or an article.
  2. Select all of the text and then copy it to the clipboard.
  3. Click on Create your own.
  4. Paste the text.
  5. Either use a screen capture program to obtain the Wordle as a graphic Or save the Wordle in the public gallery and use the code provided in your blog or web page.

Wordle can be used by the teacher as a means of assessment. Ask a pupil to create a Wordle of her presentation, and use that as the basis for a discussion, rather than the presentation itself. Wordle is also good for summarising survey results where the survey uses free text fields. As an example of this, I wanted to find out the composition of the readership of my newsletter, Computers in Classrooms.   However, entering all the answers into Wordle enabled me to see at a glance what the composition is. That in itself is a good feedback mechanism, because I can tell straight away whether my attempts to meet the needs of my target readership have been successful. 
  Iincorporating Wordle into our classroom lessons is quick and easy! They can be used in all curricular areas, and are great for promoting critical thinking skills in our students.
There are a lot of fun and interesting things we can do with Wordle lessons in the classroom. Challenge our students to come up with some uses of their own, and remember that Wordle is not the only word cloud generator out there.
