Word Sift is a site for text visualization. Word Sift is easy to use. Just enter your text (copy/paste works great for longer passages) and then click Sift. The words scramble into a tag cloud emphasizing important words. You can sift up to 3 meg.
Thanks for your question. I do not pretend to have all the answers so I hope others will chime in with ideas. I did complete a web search and found some ideas and examples at: http://literacylog.blogspot.com/2009/04/web-resource-word-sift.html .
There is also information in the same blog about the incorporation of Wordle.
The ideas on each post could be used for Wordle or Word Sift.

I thought this was a very cool tool, but how could we incorporate it into an online class? Anyone have ideas?
