Wiki Summarizer is a website that automatically generates a summary of wikipedia article or subject. This is a great tool for preliminary research as it helps students uncover important keywords and gain a basic understanding of their topics.
If you enter a search term, the site will access a Wikipedia article about that subject and provide three different summaries: a visual summary, a tree view and a keyword cloud. Each of these different views of information will help students get familiar with their topics and allow them to view it from angles that they may not have thought to do prior. |
