=Lower Sec Science= [|www.wordle.net] ||< Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends. || You can ask NT students to create wordles based on keywords from Science topics you have taught them.You can use this to summarise the lesson and also as a form of revision. Below is a sample of a Wordle for the topic on Sexual Reproduction in Human Beings. You can use this as an assesment tool where they are graded according to how many key words they can remember and how aesthetic it turns out! || [|http://goanimate.com] ||< GoAnimate is a free platform for users to create interesting animations. Its fuss-free and you can choose from a variety of templates to kick start your short animation clip. || GoAnimate is intuitive to use and students can use it to present their ideas/projects via a short animation.Teachers can use this animation clip to assess them and even create some clips of their own as trigger activities. Below is an example of a clip to motivate students to study for their MYE exams. || media type="custom" key="9213066" [|http://www.scibermonkey.org/] ||< Pressed for time?
