Abstract
The remote access astronomy project is a computerized telescope and data distribution system that has the potential to substantively change the way astronomical concepts are taught to undergraduate students, and to improve the teaching of astronomy, earth science, and physics at the high school and undergraduate levels. In addition, particularly at the secondary school level, it can serve as a forum for the distribution of curriculum materials and data among teachers, and as an educational network between high schools, universities, and professional astronomers. The system is undergoing testing at the undergraduate level, with several high schools, and a local museum.a
