America made a wise investment in creating E-rate a decade ago. Because of this on-going investment, our nation’s classrooms and libraries are nearly all connected (100% of schools, nearly every classroom). Some have suggested that now the job is done. But today, classrooms need high bandwidth connections.
Slow bandwidth in schools limits potential opportunities for students. These learning opportunities are made possible through services such as video streaming, videoconferencing, secure data submission, voice over IP, digital downloading, online courses and 1:1 computing. These applications require high levels of bandwidth and robust school networks.
