This past week Changing Expectations had the pleasure of hosting a teacher workshop with 20 members of our computer science collaborative. Our founder, Phillip Eaglin, led the group in learning coding skills that make it easy for these teachers to educate their students on valuable STEM skills.
Check out our computer science teacher collaborative in partnership with the University of Texas at Austin’s STEM Education Center.
is a bold new initiative to empower all US students from kindergarten through high school to learn computer science and be equipped with the computational thinking skills they need to be creators in the digital economy, not just consumers, and to be active citizens in our technology-driven world.
Changing Expectations is a proud Consortium Member of CSforAll. We are committed to providing K-12 and higher education STEMlearning opportunities to alleviate diverse talent shortages and advance the future STEM and computing workforce by inspiring and preparing K-12 and college students. We particularly focus on preparing and supporting those who are underrepresented in STEM fields: female, low income, and students of color–to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering and math related fields.

Changing Expectations received a personal invitation to the White House Conference on Inclusive STEM Education for Youth of Color on October 28, 2016 and to the My Brother’s Keeper STEM + Entrepreneurship Roundtable Discussion on Opening Doors and Creating Opportunities on October 27, 2016. Ten boys of color from the Changing Expectations My Brother’s Keeper Coding Makerspace and their parents attended the White House Events with Dr. Phillip Eaglin, Changing Expectations Founder.
