Visuwords™ online graphical dictionary — Look up words
to find their meanings and associations with other words and concepts. Produce
diagrams reminiscent of a neural net. Learn how words associate.

Visuwords™ uses Princeton University’s
WordNet, an opensource
database built by University students and language researchers. Combined
with a visualization tool and user interface built from a combination of modern
web technologies, Visuwords™ is available as a free resource to all patrons
of the web.
I love this site because of how nicely it plays w/ our SMART
Boards. It has become a great tool for initiating discussions in ELA
classrooms. Simply hit the “Random” button and discuss the word w/ your class. You
can of course use this as a vocabulary extension activity as well. I worked w/
one class using Visuwords where we tried to predict (as a class and in small
groups . . . nice way to allow for differentiation) related nouns, verbs, etc. This
activity created engaging classroom discussion!
In the schools where we have access to a SMART Board we use the pens to write
our predictions, capture them to the Notebook and then discussed the discrepancies.
Let me know how you use it in your classroom!
