If a blind student wants to do a CS undergrad specifically to work in assistive technology, what schools would be particularly good for that? (Feel free to boost for reach.)

@mdekstrand I know some students who would be interested in responses to this question so I’m putting a reply so I can find it again! #blind #BlindFedi #cs #ComputerScienceEducation

CS educators: do you have a favorite textbook (or online resource) for an undergraduate CS0 "introduction to computer science for non-majors" course? I'm thinking bits and files, processors and storage, how software works, networking, cybersecurity, careers in computing, a bit of social context, that sort of thing -- what every educated citizen should know even if they never write another line of code in their life.

I plan to teach some Python using Pygame and my own materials, but I'd like to at least touch on these other subjects.
