We use this digital tool to easily visualize data on a topic. These 'images made of words' are cloudy-shaped and despite that you can change settings, the size and position of words in the cloud always show the frequency and importance of it in the uploaded text. I'd definitely use word clouds in the classroom since they are useful to create eye-catching visual material that helps students to summarize and remember information. Students can also create their own word clouds, uploading a text and changing font, colour and shape, thus making any activity entertaining while fostering creativity.
