This project creates a comprehensive program for students and teachers designed to prepare underserved minority teachers in the southwestern United States to facilitate student use of Geographical Information Technology (GIT) for research within existing STEM courses. "Eyes in the Sky" is a five-stage program that supplies this preparation by engaging high school teachers in 136 hours of professional development over 18 months. These teachers work with 120 students attending 20-hour summer workshops, providing IT training for students and experience for teachers with integrating IT into the classroom. The program provides effective, appropriate training for teachers enabling them to implement authentic research using expertise and resources from business, industry and government agencies.

该项目为学生和教师创建了一个综合计划，旨在培养美国西南部服务不足的少数族裔教师，以促进学生在现有 STEM 课程中使用地理信息技术 (GIT) 进行研究。 “天空之眼”是一个分为五个阶段的计划，通过让高中教师在 18 个月内进行 136 小时的专业发展来提供这种准备。 这些教师与 120 名学生一起参加 20 小时的夏季研讨会，为学生提供 IT 培训，并为教师提供将 IT 融入课堂的经验。 该计划为教师提供有效、适当的培训，使他们能够利用商业、工业和政府机构的专业知识和资源进行真实的研究。
