This research sought to determine the impact of an educational program based on accessibility specifications in developing some computational skills and to ascertain the ease with which it could be used. The researcher used both developmental and semi-empirical approaches, and the results indicated that there was a statistically significant difference between the average scores of blind students while measuring pre- and post-test grades in the average achievement scores of the computational skills in favor of the post application. Additionally, there was a statistically significant difference between the average scores of those with low vision in measuring pre- and post-test grades in the average achievement scores of the computational skills in favor of the post application. There was also a statistically significant difference between the average scores of the non-visually impaired students in measuring pre- and post-test grades in the average achievement scores of the computational skills in favor of the post application. The use of the program’s interface achieved a satisfaction ratio in the three experimental groups of not less than 66.6% for each student. (Published abstract)
