Word Cloud

I thought this "Wordle" assignment was pretty neat!  I created the wordle using terminology associated with my DCT Program.  I think this assignment would be fun and interesting for my DCT students.  I could use this as an assignment for them to express all the good and bad experiences with their jobs (school appropriate words of course!), as well as, words (just as I used) to describe everything they are doing and learning in DCT class.  This type of technology assignment would also be very beneficial to my special education students in math and english classes.  It is a way for students with special needs who cannot put their words into sentences, but can still get information across about what they are learning in class.  I love it!  I will definitely be using this with my students with special needs!

The "Wordle" closely relates with the ISTE.NETS STANDARDS 2c and 3c because it's creating a customized and personalized learning activity to address students' diverse learning styles and ability to use digital tools and resources, as well as, communicating relevant information and ideas effectively to students using a variety of digital-age media and formats.
