Title: Analyse the word cloud
Course: US Election 2012 - Leuphana Copy > Section: The electoral system

Analyse the Word cloud: important terms about U.S. politics and the election following the think-pair-share method:

- Think: On your own, choose at least three words you can explain and three that you are not familiar with. Make notes about what the unknown words could mean and define the words that you already know. Insert the information into our Word cloud glossary. You may use the Glossary of U.S. election terms for help, but don't just copy and paste.
- Pair: If you work in the same room, discuss your thoughts with a partner who has looked at different topics and share what you have found out. Both of you, add the new information to our glossary. If you work at home, comment on the entries of your classmates in the glossary.
- Share: Share your findings in the classroom. In the forum "Missing words in the word cloud glossary" consider which words have not (yet) been discussed. Which words can you not make sense of? Are you missing any words? Don't forget to write answers to your classmates.
