Fun website

Much fun to be had at Wordle
This is the result of typing in this blog's url, but the more linguistically adventurous may well feel more creative. Anything is possible.

Great fun indeed - I have just created one from a selection of words which came to me when thinking about Adult Education in Glos in general and about e-learning in particular. Here's the link http://wordle.net/gallery/wrdl/72723/Gloucestershire_Adult_Education

Gill this is a really good starting point for a report I have to write on the blog. I need to pick out some key themes and your Wordle has given me some words to get me going.

Well, who said playtime was wasted time eh?

Glad it fitted a need, Jane - I had envisioned Aleksandra and her language colleagues putting together interesting things with vocabulary...the more creative souls making up some kind of design to stitch or paint. did i imagine it being of use in a blog report? Not really...but I will be pleased to see how you use it!

Doubtless I'm being very dumb, but how did you capture your wordle to include it in your blog, please?

Gill said...

No such thing as a dumb question Sue.

I captured the screen using the PrtSc button (on my pc it's up above the backspace button, next but one to the del key)- that copied it to my clipboard - I didn't print out.

I pasted into my Photoshop Elements programme and edited out the bits I didn't want (the toolbar etc) by selecting and cropping, then saved as a new jpg and uploaded it here.

If I missed a step out or didn't explain something well enough, do say and I'll try harder!!
