WORDCLOUDS

Below are wordclouds created using Wordle.  A wordcloud is a diagram generated using the words most frequently occurring in a document or discussion thread.  The larger the word the more frequently it appeared in the discussions. 

Each diagram was created using the postings made to the discussion list.  The file f3d1 is a diagram of the 50 most frequently used words on Day 1 of the Forum.  The file f3d2 is a diagram of the 50 most frequently used words on the first two days, etc. 

NB: As the word "copyright" appeared large in each of the wordclouds, i.e. it occurred most frequently and for obvious reasons in this discussion, it has been removed so as to allow the other frequently words to come to the fore.
