Wordles are defined as a word cloud or a tagged cloud.
They are often used by educators to give students a mental snapshot or at-a-glance example of key words linked to a particular lesson. The value of Wordles is that they are so easily created and can be printed out as a handout or, they can be projected onto a screen at the head of the classroom or, they can be embedded just about anywhere online!
Wordles are a quick, handy, and colorful graphic image that brings a rhythm and vibration to an otherwise boring list of key words as related to a particular lesson. Wordles offer a dash of inspiration and energy to those interested in a particular topic.
In this file, the Wordle is particularly well-matched to this lesson in Art History. The lesson provides a clear cut timeline about how Art and the most relevant Art History milestones evolved across the ages. The lesson is succinct and eliminates wading through pages of what appears to be unrelated historical facts. The subject matter breathes new life into the relevance of Art History in every day life.
