• Making Coding Education More Accessible for Blind and Visually Impaired Youth

  June 13, 2023

  There are many fun and exciting ways to engage young people with coding — animation, games, robotics. The only problem: they’re largely visual and not accessible for those who are blind or visually impaired.

  A research team led by Brian Magerko, professor of Digital Media at Georgia Tech, is working to solve this problem by adapting EarSketch, a platform designed to teach students to code in Python or JavaScript through music and creative discovery, for blind and visually impaired youth. Since launching in 2011, the free EarSketch platform has been used by more than a million students from all 50 U.S. states and in more than 100 countries.

  The effort will be supported by an almost $3 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF).
