Abstract

This paper aims to contribute to a better understanding of the aspects that involve the use of the computer in the educational process of students with disabilities, and to seek the teachers' knowledge about the challenges encountered in the inclusion of children with disabilities, and how they have benefited of technologies in a way that is truly included. Although most teachers know about the benefits of using software, or educational games for students with disabilities, they still consider hard to find a game that most students can enjoy at the same time and in a proper way, Deficiency present in the students and that often needs adaptations, but it is important to find alternatives, to research tools that help, since only then is it possible to promote education, recreation and autonomous life promotion for these students. In this sense, it was researched and made available to the students of a class of the APAE, from the city Rio Grande do Sul, some games of memory that seemed more appropriate to that reality, with the purpose of digitally including these students and to allow an improvement in the self-esteem of both students and teachers.
