develop grade level appropriate lesson plans based ontheir experiences. The five-week program consisted of teachers conducting team-based research,weekly meetings with graduate student mentors, reviewing journal articles, attendingprofessional development meetings, and building scientific written and verbal communicationskills. The weekly themes were 1) Orientation, Literature Review and Introduction to Python, 2)Introduction to OpenCV and Basics of Computer Vision, 3) Introduction to Machine Learning,4) Implement the Monitoring, and 5) Analyzing Data, Developing Lessons and ResearchPresentations (see Table 2 for detailed program agenda).Table 2.

(PjBL), engineering, and culturally relevant curriculum that fit the specific needs of the studentsthey serve.To ensure the alignment of the independent RET program's goals and the NSF's objectives, variousuniversity RET programs have utilized evaluation methods that capture short-term data such as theprogram's impact on the teacher or lesson plan implementation with diverse populations. This paperinvestigates the connection between our RET program and long-term female and minority studentachievement in the forms of high school graduation rates and undergraduate STEM major selectionrates using a state agency K-12 and higher education database. As a comparison, state agency datafrom students of nonRET teachers within the same schools and grade
