Wordle and Twitter



I really enjoyed Wordle! I don't necessarily think that it is an extremely helpful tool in the classroom, but I think it is a great way to put together a list of names, verbs, etc. As a teacher, this would be a fun way to put all the names of my student's in one document and have Wordle create a fun way to display them. I also like the idea of using Wordle to see if I have been using a word like "good" too much. Overall, it's a fun and creative tool!

I love Twitter! It is a great way to communicate with your friends what is going on in the world. I mainly like it because we are always kept up to date on new information. It is fun to follow celebrities, but it is also very beneficial to follow the news, UT, and health magazines to see the latest news. Twitter is a great tool to use in the professional world and academic world as we always want to communicate with our followers. Twitter is also a great tool to use in the classroom. As teachers, we can keep our students up to date with assignments, field trip information, etc.
