Low cost wireless technology and digital board for education in rural Kenya

The application of wireless technologies in education is having a big development, but contrary to what we think the tools are not overly expensive. Thanks to the spread of wireless coverage, it's possible to reach the most remote corners and rural areas with simple mobile phone connected to a central system of information dissemination. This paper explores the use of wireless technology in combination with low-cost tools that have enabled access to education in rural areas of Kenya: this is a work in progress that will surely give you amazing results in the coming years. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
