CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_
Reported by Arthur St. George/U New Mexico
Minutes of the Internet School Networking Working Group (ISN)
The Internet School Networking Working Group is chartered to facilitate
the use of the Internet by United States' K-12 (Kindergarten-12th Grade)
schools, public and private, and school networking in general.
It is critically important to establish guidelines for the integration
of K-12 educational networking into the Internet. The Working Group's
first priority will be to establish connectivity models, including
costs, for distribution to all parties concerned with connection of K-12
schools to the Internet. This Working Group will also provide
guidelines to technical solutions for other support services such as
directories, online and hotline help, specialized training programs and
collaborative projects with instructional and curriculum groups,
disciplinary groups and post-secondary institutions.
In pursuit of these goals, the Working Group will work closely with
other organizations such as the Consortium for School Networking, and
the Coalition for Networked Information. Finally, the Working Group
will act as technical consultant to K-12 organizations and groups
seeking connection and access to the Internet.
While we agreed that the first task for the Working Group was to produce
a document which outlined multiple connectivity models for K-12
connection to the Internet, we also briefly discussed one other project
which should be raised, that is the user interface document. The idea
here is to discuss and come to agreement on what would constitute
standards for K-12 interface(s) to the Internet. These run the gamut
from e-mail to bulletin boards. Competing with this project for number
2 priority status is an RFC which provides the 25 most commonly asked
questions about K-12 connection to and use of the Internet.
