An alternative way to prepare Wordles

1

There are a few ways to set up Wordles

1. You can enter unadulterated verbatims (unadulterated that is, except for correcting any spelling errors) and Wordle will “count” the words and generate a presentation based upon how often each word appears

2. You can prepare text so that Wordle counts the phrase frequency by replacing spaces between the words with tildes “~” e.g. good~overall~response

3. Or, you can provide phrases, frequencies and select colors all at once

In this presentation, I will demonstrate how to execute #3. The benefit of using #3 is that you will know all of the client’s colors are used, there is no additional need to manipulate text or replace spaces with tildes, and those checking the final product will have an easier time because they can refer to the open end table.

First, to establish colors. WORDLE uses HEX colors, while we reference RGB colors in order to…

• Determine the colors in hex format

• Go to: http://www.color-hex.com/

• In the space provided, enter the abbreviation RGB followed by the RGB numbers 28, 190, 240, e.g. RGB 28, 190, 240

• I usually just copy and paste from slide with the TEMPLATE Colors

• The corresponding HEX code for the color will be provided, in this case it is 1cbef0

• Repeat the process for all of the template colors, and….

Client template colors in RGB and HEX

• You end up with this….

• Now on to the next step

Copy and paste your open ends into a word table. Add an extra column and add the HEX colors…

Include your open ended responses The # of mentions And, the Hex Color

This is what you will get…

Then, search/replace any spaces before the paragraph mark (replace with the paragraph mark (don’t worry, you are correct! It doesn’t really look any different)

• At this point you can select the font and Layout (horizontal, vertical, any which way)

• When it looks the way you want it too, select Open in Window, and copy, then paste the results into your Powerpoint presentation

And, you can provide your counts to the individual who is double checking the open ends to the WORDLE
