Federal Communication Commission (FCC)
The recently released National Broadband ACT 2008 made recommendations to the FCC to improve education in the US by supporting and promoting online learning through the expansion of broadband technology.
ConnectEd June 2013
Thats why President Obama is unveiling a bold, new initiative called ConnectED, which will connect 99 percent of Americas students to the internet through high-speed broadband and high-speed wireless within 5 years.
The President also directed the federal government to make better use of existing funds to get Internet connectivity and educational technology into classrooms, and into the hands of teachers trained on its advantages. And he called on businesses, states, districts, schools and communities to support this vision, which requires no congressional action.
The goal of the Presidents ConnectED initiative is to bring high-speed Internet connections to 99 percent of Americas students which he is calling on the FCC to do within five years.
This is not connectivity for connectivitys sake. It is laying the foundation for a vision of classrooms where students are engaged in individualized digital learning and where teachers can assess progress lesson by lesson and day by day. Its about creating learning environments where students can both succeed and struggle without embarrassment, where barriers for children with disabilities are removed, and where we can bring the most modern, innovative, and up-to-date content into the classroom.
ConnectedEd Initiative
Connected generation
4,000,000 children are posting content to the Web everyday
15,000,000 youth use internet messaging
Twitter - Twitter is now processing 50 million Tweets a day, which comes to about 1.5 billion Tweets a month. Royal Pingdom recently reported that Twitter passed one billion Tweets a month last December and measured about 1.2 billion in January. On a daily basis, Royal Pindom was measuring 27 million Tweets a day back in November, 2009. But the latest data comes from Twitter itself. (2/2010)
Facebook -With over 500 million users, Facebook is now used by 1 in every 13 people on earth, with over 250 million of them (over 50%) who log in every day. (2/2010)
What is BYOD?
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) - a concept where people use personally owned devices which are not owned by their employers or the school district.
Sometimes referred to as Bring Your Own Technology (BYOT).
Consumerization of IT
Communication
Contacts

While districts try to find additional funding for technology integration in the classroom, students are walking into the room with devices that are capable of providing a technology rich experience that is guided by the curriculum in the district.
Ubiquitous computing (ubicomp) is a post-desktop model of human-computer interaction in which information processing has been thoroughly integrated into everyday objects and activities. In the course of ordinary activities, someone "using" ubiquitous computing engages many computational devices and systems simultaneously, and may not necessarily even be aware that they are doing so.
