Abstract

Looks at the Challenger Learning Center in West Virginia, USA, and its e‐Mission: Operation Monserrat Island, a distance learning program designed to meet state and national standards in the areas of maths and science in grades 6 through 12. States that this is done via the Internet with the use of computers and a small camera. Concludes that this is a unique hands‐on learning experience with the potential to reach a great number of students.
