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.

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).
