WRIST: Wearable Research for In-Service STEM Teachers (RET) - High School Teachers

The objective of the WRIST RET site program is to engage high school technology and STEM teachers in cutting-edge research projects in wearable computing and related areas. The program consists of a six-week immersive summer research experience under direct faculty mentorship.

Teachers can select from a variety of projects ranging from activity recognition using a wrist accelerometer, to software engineering principles for wearable application development, to computational wearables in fashion.

Teachers will use their results to design an innovative lesson, which they will present at a one-day spring workshop.
