Empowering K–12 Students With Disabilities to Learn Computational Thinking and Computer Programming - {Dubstowel}

Abstract:
The article discusses the inclusion of computer programming and computational thinking in K-12 instructions within science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) for disabled students in the U.S. Topics discussed include computing-related job opportunities by 2020 as estimated by the Department of Labor, a framework namely universal design for learning (UDL) to teach computing to students, and strategies implied by special educators to make computing learning easy for students.
