Interactive Weather Gap Fill Exercise HTML with Icons
Click to open website
I've made the following changes to address your concern and make the exercise interactive:
Answer Selection:
Replaced the span elements with radio button inputs for each option.
Each question now has a set of radio buttons, allowing users to select one answer per question.
Interactive Checking:
Modified the "Check Answers" button to trigger a function that checks the selected answers against the correct ones.
Added immediate feedback for each question, showing whether the selected answer is correct or incorrect.
Included a score alert that shows how many questions were answered correctly out of the total.
Visual Feedback:
Added color-coded feedback (green for correct, red for incorrect) to make it easy to see which questions were answered correctly.
Included a reminder to select an answer if a question is left unanswered.
Maintained Previous Features:
The weather icons and overall layout remain the same.
The exercise still maintains its responsiveness and should work well on various screen sizes.
To use this updated version in a Google Site:
Copy the entire new HTML code.
In your Google Site, add an "Embed" element.
Choose the "Embed code" option.
Paste this new HTML code into the provided field.
Adjust the size of the embedded element as needed.
This version allows students to select answers, get immediate feedback, and see their overall score, making the exercise more interactive and engaging. The functionality should work within the constraints of a Google Sites embed.

Anthropic introduced significant enhancements to Claude's PDF processing capabilities, particularly with the release of Claude 3.5 Sonnet. These updates enable Claude to comprehensively analyze both textual and visual elements within PDF documents, including images, charts, and graphics.
Claude supports PDFs up to 30 MB in size and 100 pages in length.
Claude can now RUN code & do advanced data analyisis with the new Analysis tool! (free for al users)
A new built-in feature for Claude.ai that enables Claude to write and run JavaScript code. Claude can now process data, conduct analysis, and produce real-time insights. The analysis tool is available for all Claude.ai users in feature preview.
While Claude could always write code, it can now run that code within Claude.ai to support all types of analysis tasks. With the analysis tool, you get answers that are not just well-reasoned, but are mathematically precise and reproducible.
Claude (API- not web) can now Use a Computer!
Another step toward autonymous agents- Anthropic announced a public beta in its API (not yet available on the web or mobile app/ public version) in which Claude can actually navigate a computer to perform tasks for the user.
Video by Anthropic Claude - https://www.anthropic.com/news/3-5-models-and-computer-use
Click your user icon in the lower left corner --> Feature Preview --> Visual PDF's --> ON
ALSO- turn on Analysis tool Feature Preview--> Analysis tool --> ON
In this example, I provided a .csv file of data about various health statistics from Tableu free data sets- https://www.tableau.com/learn/articles/free-public-data-sets and asked Claude to "Analyze the data I attached and create a line graph demonstrating changes in life expectancy for females vs males for all of the countries over time" NOTE- the data only has death rates. Claude was able to analyze it and extrapolate life expectancy data from it. (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fdrvjy0POgj9LiBTOVDS-3PYztZtY53c7ykKQrzsRVo/edit?usp=sharing )
Then asked for it to be more graphically pleasing, add flags and icons etc.
I uploaded the NC Generative AI Implementation Recommendations and Considerations for PK-13 Public Schools
Prompt:
"summarize the key points of the document. Arrange the summary by the 5 focus areas of the NC Digital Learning plan. Explain all graphics"
then " turn this summary into a visually pleasing infographic. Show all the text at once for printing"
Include the images of the graphics in the infographic
The result: https://claude.site/artifacts/5a6ccd83-e904-4c0b-92d7-ce8e46ad71eb
This caused it to exceed the message length so I asked for a separate infographic for each focus area.
Here are two of the resulting artifacts
