Abstract:


    This Engaging Education Technique and Assignment (EETA) introduces accessibility with haptics and Turtle Graphics after only a few weeks into a first programming course in Python. The sample assignments feature open-ended exploration to meaningfully map graphical attributes to haptic feedback that could benefit blind or low vision users.
