Interesting exploration of the potential use of a of LoRa or Meshtastic mesh network to support online learning in Sierra Leone. It offers (in my view) lessons for all of us on resilience insystem design, which we might need in the not-too-distant future. "Systems should treat interruption and delay as baseline conditions rather than as exceptional failures. Many platforms designed for stable connectivity respond poorly to partial synchronization, producing inconsistent records and eroding trust. LoRa mesh communication encourages a more resilient approach." It would be ideal to support online learning and other communications networks that can withstand power outages, network disruption, and other sources of interference.
