RFC 1709:
Title: K-12 Internetworking Guidelines
Author: J. Gargano & D. Wasley
Mailbox: jcgargano@ucdavis.edu, dlw@berkeley.edu
Pages: 26
Characters: 66,659
Updates/Obsoletes: none
Many organizations concerned with K-12 educational issues and the
planning for the use of technology recognize the value of data
communications throughout the educational system. State sponsored
documents such as the California Department of Education's
"Strategic Plan for Information Technology" recommend the planning
of voice, video and data networks to support learning and
educational administration, but they do not provide specific
technical direction.
The institutions that built the Internet and connected early in its
development are early adopters of technology, with technical staff
dedicated to the planning for and implementation of leading edge
technology. The K-12 community traditionally has not had this level
of staffing available for telecommunications planning. This
document is intended to bridge that gap and provides a recommended
technical direction, an introduction to the role the Internet now
plays in K-12 education and technical guidelines for building a
campus data communications infrastructure that provides
internetworking services and connections to the Internet.
