Virtual Reality
The NSF Funded Nebraska Innovation Maker Co-Laboratory (NiMC) project advances a high-risk model of connectedness and social innovation. This project focuses on using two main strategies; a) virtual collaborative spaces and b) robotic telepresence, to provide rural youth access to the Maker movement. This high-risk model will provide a replicable strategy of reaching rural underserved youth audiences within their communities so that they may establish wider learning communities with experts and mentors and thereby fully participate in the maker experience.
