title = "How learning styles in CS can foster inclusion of visually impaired students",
abstract = "We present the results of a study of learning types of CS students. In computer science education there seems to be a prevalence of visually oriented teaching methods. However, as the results of our investigation show, the learners may not actually benefit from this trend. This is valuable information in the context of including visually impaired learners in computer science classes - since these learners suffers the greatest disadvantages from visually oriented teaching and learning aids. Our results indicate that a different approach to CSEd placing more emphasis on kinesthetic and textual material may be of advantage for all CS students alike and also foster the inclusion of visually impaired learners.",
