A faster site, a new Learning Tool, and an export function!

We love making Rewordify.com better and better. Here's what's new:

We redesigned the home page. We reduced the amount of text, and we removed the images and replaced them with information tables. The result is an extremely fast-loading page with less text to read.

The printable Learning Tools are now cleaner. We took "Rewordify.com," etc., off our printable Learning Tools. Tools like the Matching Sheet, List with Definitions, etc., used to have our website name and links at the top of the printout. We took them out so the printed Learning Tools are completely plain, for fewer distractions and more flexibility of use.


We created a new Learning Tool.  It's called Print Text with Vocab Column: (Click the image to see a bigger version.)

For any rewordified block of text, it displays the block of text with the hard words underlined in a left-hand column, and the associated definitions near the hard words in a right-hand column.

To make the page less cluttered, it only defines a hard word once, the first time it's used.

To get this, simply rewordify any block of text, and select "Print Text with Vocab Column" from the Learning Tools that display under the text.

It's one more way that Rewordify.com can help your students build their vocabulary and improve their reading comprehension. In a few clicks, they have any text printed in a way that makes it easier to understand.

You can now export to CSV any list of hard words. CSV stands for Comma Separated Values. It's a file format that lets you export and import data from one web site or program to another.

After you rewordify a block of text, you'll see "Export to CSV" in the Learning Tools. When you cick it, you'll get a plain screen that looks like this (of course, when you do it, you'll see the hard words in your text block):

"hard word","definition"
"difficult word","easier phrase"
"word3","definition3"
etc...

You can a few things from here.

• You can copy-paste the screen into another program that can import word lists, like some online flash card and studying sites
  
• You can copy-paste the screen into a spreadsheet program. If you do, you may have to select a feature called "text to columns" so they're separated into two columns
  
• You can save the page as a .CSV file. To do this, select "Save Page As" (or similar command) in your browser. Then, give the file a name that ends with .CSV. Be sure to select that you're saving it as a File Type of text.

You can only export 50 words at a time.
