In yesterday's class, we were working in our groups to discuss the different vocabulary and topics we had talked about. Then we needed to put the words into Tagxedo and create a word cloud. Tagxedo was new experience for each of us and we expected it to be much like using Wordle. The main difference was that you choose the shape you want the word cloud to be be and when you scroll over each word, the word pops out to stand out. We had some difficulty putting the words and it seemed confusing although it may be easier the second time around. I would prefer Wordle because I know how to use it and it is much more straightforward in my opinion, but if I have more time, Tagxedo would be good to use as well. Our word cloud that we created in Tagxedo is here. Let me know what you think!
I love Taxgedo! I also like wordle but I like the fact that Taxgedo allows you to chose the shape you like for your word cloud!
