“A smart rural community relies on broadband networks to enable a series of applications that the community can leverage for innovative economic development and commerce, top‐notch education, first‐rate health care, cutting‐edge government services, enhanced security and more efficient utilities use."
"Rural areas are often far away from the types of resources that are available in urban areas. Schools, health care providers, public safety institutions and commercial entities, however, can be positioned to reap the benefits of a smart rural community. The economic and societal gains enabled by broadband allow for rural service providers and the communities they serve to embrace the challenges and opportunities of new technology.”
- Pam Iron, AIRC director
Sevenstar Spatial Network creates curricula and design projects that are massively collaborative, inclusive, and accessible to students and teachers of differing skill and interest levels.
We work directly with teachers and students to design and develop activities that involve collaborating on real world community projects that lead to job readiness.
