Abstract

Rural schools are not, in general, well equipped for the STEM disciplines, but the students in rural areas should have the same opportunities that the students in the urban areas. The use of remote experiments could mitigate this situation. Remote experimentation democratizes the access to science and technology. This papers describes the R3 Project: Rural, Remote & Real.
