K-12 Networking

Learning for All in the Digital Age

Fourth Annual Conference February 24-28, 1999 Renaissance Washington DC Hotel Washington, DC

"EQUITY ACCESS to information technologies in the K-12 classroom is the test of what kind of society we will be in the future. Will we allow a digital divide to exist based on what zip code our kids live in? The 1999 CoSN conference will explore this theme and provide concrete models of how we can address the digital equity challenge." Roger Hoyer Associate Superintendent for Technology New Haven Unified School Distnct CA Chair of the 1999 K-12 Networking Conference

"SOME IN CONGRESS believe we have solved the problem of school connectivity if we have one internet connection to a school. Having hundreds of students sharing a single access point, often in dial-up mode, is not providing our kids with the tools they need for the 21st Century. This conference will hear leading champions and critics of the E-Rate, and give advocates a forum to press support for the E-Rate, as well as other state and national initiatives." James Bosco Director Western Michigan University, Office of Technology COSN Chair
