The vast majority of these kinds of stories are complete bunk.
I hate to say it, but this is correct.
Who in the world would have the expertise to operate one of these? In a “low resource” high school? The problem isn’t (just) having the equipment.
There are so few teachers with enough knowledge to engage. Well-resourced, highly motivated kids might be able to read on line, but that’s a real stretch for the rest.
Why? What do you mean by “bunk?” Do you have any examples you can point to?
Regardless of its bunk coefficient this is still exciting and inspiring, especially for students or low resourced people.
