Equitable Computer Science Education for People with Learning Disabilities
From: IEEE Computing Edge - 10/2107 - page 6

An unprecedented effort is underway to expand learning opportunities in K-12
CS education, especially among women and minorities. However, those with
specific learning disabilities and related attention-deficit disorders are
often overlooked. As CS education initiatives grow, teachers need guidance to
make computing more accessible for students who learn differently. Sarah
Wille and Jeanne Century of Outlier Research and Evaluation, and Miriam Pike
of the Wolcott School in Chicago, report on the first phase of a National
Science Foundation-supported study in "Exploratory Research to Expand
Opportunities in Computer Science for Students with Learning Differences,"
published in the May/June 2017 issue of Computing in Science & Engineering.
