Abstract
CodeRhythm is a tangible programming toolkit for engaging blind and visually impaired (BVI) students to learn fundamental programming concepts by creating a simple melody. We adopt the form factor of blocks as fundamental elements to represent codes. The whole toolkit contains a set of blocks comprising tangible Syllable Blocks and several distinctive Function Blocks representing different programming concepts. We aim to help students to learn and get familiar with the fundamental programming logic, and to raise their interest towards computing programming.
