Many mathematics educators are not aware of a strong connection that exists between the education of computer programming and mathematics. The reason may be that they have not been exposed to computer programming. This connection is worth exploring, given the current trends of automation and Industry 4.0. Therefore, in this paper we take a closer…

Adults with intellectual disability (ID) often have challenges when accessing written text. One promising way to address this is through the use of assistive technology (AT) in the form of text to speech (TTS) software to allow individuals to read aurally, bypassing visual decoding weaknesses. However, little information is available on how to…

This article reports on a speculative design experiment, wherein the authors produced a critical remix video as intervention into the spread of toxic technocultural discourse on Twitch.tv (Twitch), an online platform in which content creators stream live content alongside a live chat audience.
