- 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.
