Using Taggalaxy


Taggalaxy.de/ is an excellent online resource that offers opportunity for a practitioner to catch the attention of students . Beginning a discussion on a subject by using this software offers visual reminders when implementing a presentation. The website firstly asks for a subject tag in order to compile images however if possible it will produce other options show visually using planets. These planets can work as excellent visual aids in order to produce a flow of contributions towards a specific discussion on a topic however if the system is unable to collect data in order to produce tags then an apologetic note appears. It is therefore important that a user tests the subject first. The negative about the website is that the practitioner is unable to choose the pictures that are chosen by the system and therefore not all of the images might be relevant to the subject being taught. A student may use this website as a resource to remind themselves of recent areas of a topic studied or in it could be used in order to consider ideas before beginning a piece of writing. Use of a Flickr account with images could well prove useful when using this website.
