Wordles and Polls . . . .

Wordles and polls both promote inventiveness in students . We used worldes and polls to form a better understanding of one another . In a classroom , I would be more likely to use polls to help my students study for art history tests or the terms used in certain drawings and paintings . This will promote a better learning environment because it will involve the use of technology and its certainly more fun than trying to retain the information from a dry textbook .

Worldes and polls also support and model creative thinking by engaging students and fullfilling that "want" to learn . Polls motivate the audience to think , therefore helping them retain the information better . Wordles spark creativity in students, giving them the idea that there is more than one way to remember certain terms.
