Wordle

I have had the opportunity to create Wordles before in other classes.  For this assignment I created three different Wordles.  Here are the three links:
ISTE-NETS.T 2000 Wordle
ISTE-NETS.T 2008 Wordle
My Wordle on the Holocaust and WWII
Below is a screen shot of the 2000 ISTE-NETS.T wordle:





As you can see from this Wordle the dominant feature or component is teachers.  Next is technology and then learning.





Next is a screen shot of 2008

As you can see from this Wordle the dominant features are learning and digital.  While teachers are also a main priority they are not the main focus.  It seems that the standards are now focused more on the digital learning instead of the teachers.  




The last Wordle that I created is for my future classroom.  I am not a full time teacher yet, I am just enjoying my time as a sub.  However, I am very passionate about history therefore I decided to create a Wordle on the Holocaust and WWII.  Below you can see the image that was created.  

As you can see there are several dominant features that I choose to include.  They include: Jews, Germany, Holocaust, Nazi, final solution, Hitler, and WWII.  I choose these words because they are what I feel is most important.  However, if I would do this activity with my students I would make it clear that their Wordles would or could be significantly different than mine.
