Introduction
During the COVID-19 epidemic, our students are home-bound and teachers without a means to conduct the traditional classroom. This does not mean that learning must also be shut down. Even with limited internet access through a single smart phone, teachers can continue to interact with and guide the learning of their students.
The Mt. Meru Astronomical Observatory Ambassadors, teachers at primary and secondary schools provided distance learning for their students, even those with limited internet access. You can too!
