dc.description.abstractIn this invited presentation, Dr. Emi Iwatani shares ways in which a 6-year research practice partnership to promote computing education in Eastern Kentucky has been guided by core principles of civic imagination. The project has not just trained K-8 teachers in computational thinking lessons, but importantly has (1) helped teachers imagine a viable future for their region and their students, (2) supported building of roles and skills for educators that allow them to participate in that future, and (3) provided educators with a sense of agency or permission to help shape that future.
