Re: WordCloud or other check-in/check-out ideas


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hi Peggy!

I really like Sli.do <>?for WordClouds, and many people have recommended Mentimeter <>?as well.

Besides writing in Zoom Chat (when using Zoom), I¡¯ve supported written Check In/Outs in Google docs; as one-word or one-phrase spoken in an order (which can be posted in the chat to make it easy to follow). It¡¯s surprising how quickly even a large-ish group can check in or out if the sharing is kept to a word or a phrase - you can do the same thing with a sound or movement that expresses what you want to share. You could also write (or draw) something on a piece of paper and hold it up in your video window, either everyone all at once, or in an order.

Love to you and all,

Amy

Hi all,

I¡¯m running an online Open Space using Zoom in a couple weeks and would love to create a WordCloud as a check-in and/or check-out with the group. We¡¯ll have a Google Doc for session notes. Google Docs has an add-on that generates a WordCloud but it only shows on my screen.

Does anyone know of a way, with a group of 50-100, that we can create a WordCloud in real time from people¡¯s responses to a check-in question?

Or, alternatively, any suggestions for a simple check-in or check-out beyond entering a few words in the chat?

Thanks,
Peggy

P.S. The invitation is here:?. The gathering is for journalism students and educators around the question:
In?the midst of upheaval, what¡¯s possible to prepare the next generation of journalists?
