Providing Access and Opportunity for Computational Thinking and Computer Science to Support Mathematics for Students with Disabilities
Bouck, Emily C.; Yadav, Aman
Journal of Special Education Technology, v37 n1 p151-160 Mar 2022
The ideas of computational thinking (CT) and computer science (CS) are increasingly being integrated into K-12 education. Yet, insufficient attention exists regarding access and exposure of CT and CS for students with disabilities. In this Technology in Action, the authors sought to present an argument--as well as actual activities--for teachers to start to expose and engage students with disabilities in CT and CS. Through the presentation of case studies as well as other non-case situated activities, practical ideas, and steps for integrating CT and CS in mathematics teaching and learning for students with disabilities are presented.
