Without explicitly learning to develop accessible technology, technologists are entering the workforce without the ability to produce technology that is accessible to people with disabilities. This in turn limits the ability of companies and organizations to design accessible technology. Teaching Accessible Computing offers concrete pedagogical ideas for educators about how to integrate accessibility into their […]
Now in its fifth year, the Cultural Competence in Computing (3C) Fellows Program has helped computing/STEM faculty, postdocs, and graduate students learn more about identity-related topics (including how they manifest in academic/professional spaces) and develop identity-inclusive projects across the globe. This session features former 3C Fellows who will share their experiences of doing the work […]
