In this paper, we summarize some of the lessons learned from the Advancing Out-of-School Learning in Mathematics and Engineering (AOLME) project. The AOLME project uses an integrated curriculum that relies on the use of basic concepts from middle-school mathematics to teach the foundations of image and video representations. The middle-school students, mostly from underrepresented groups, learn how to program their own video representations using Python libraries running on the Raspberry Pi. Overall, we have found that the students enjoy participating in the project.
