Teaching Accessible Computing (TAC) is a free, online, community-sourced digital textbook for computing educators to learn how to integrate accessibility topics into their courses. Launched in March 2024 with 16 chapters like Introductory Programming (CS1) + Accessibility, Data Structures + Accessibility, and AI/ML + Accessibility, TAC has already reached 5,700+ readers in 99 countries. 

AccessComputing and the TAC team are excited to share these updates:

  1. New chapter: Foundations: Disability & Accessibility by Richard E. Ladner and Stephanie Ludi! This chapter provides foundational knowledge about these areas so that any educator, no matter their prior experience with accessibility, can start to become confident teaching these topics.
  2. TAC Evaluation Survey: If you have engaged with TAC in the past year, we want to hear from you! Please fill out our 10min feedback survey to be entered into a raffle for a $50 gift card. If you leave your contact information and participate in a follow-up interview with our team, you will be compensated with an additional $35 gift card. 
  3. Call for chapters: The TAC team will be conducting another round of chapter writing, review, and publication this year. If you would like to contribute your expertise to TAC, leave your contact information and chapter ideas on our Interest Form and an editor will reach out.

Thank you all for your support of this book; we couldn’t have done it without the wonderful community of educators passionate about teaching accessible computing.
