Embedding in our Webpage

This is our final week.
We learned how to embed games, google maps, news,  and Zoho documents into the web page we started at the beginning of this class.
It really has been an interesting experience.


I also looked through other people's web pages and left feedback for them.  There are several people in this class that are much more experienced than I am.  I had a hard time thinking of an interactive web page, but I thought the idea of an education tool, especially for kids with learning disabilities would be very helpful.  My nephew has a learning disability and likes working on the computer a lot better than trying to do work sheets or read from a book.  The interactive games the school uses are ok, but I think they could probably be more creative.  

I've been reading about kids with autism using computers to communicate with the outside world.  I think that would be a very good application.  Some kids that are autistic cannot speak, so being able to use a touch screen or something that is less difficult than a keyboard, would be very helpful for them.
