| Motivation: NII will evolve to link schools, homes, offices, hospitals, government agencies with high speed digital links supporting real-time video for interactive collaboration and data access |
| K-12 schools lack adequate technology infrastructure and currently there is little understanding if and how NII can be used in education |
| So far use of technology in education has had modest success |
| Internet provides exemplar of broad capabilities of NII |
| NYNET with its MPP servers provides prototype of NII technologies |
| Involve professionals in Newhouse School of Public Communication and Syracuse School of Education |
