Extending the Internet 2 Domain

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    Partnerships involving universities, businesses, and the US government form the backbone of the Internet 2 community. These members have experienced the innovative spirit and outcomes of advanced networking and applications. The K-20 Initiative extends the Internet 2 to the educational sectors outside the Internet 2 community. This effort provides the vehicle for distributing Internet 2 developments to nonmember environments while gaining the perspective of this environment. The target groups are K-12, community colleges, universities, libraries, and museums. This effort has pushed advanced networking and applications to new heights and has increased educational collaboration.

    Funding

    A very interesting project development within the K-20 Initiative is the Lewis and Clark Digital Gateway, sponsored by the Missouri Research and Education network. This project will involve access to a compilation of digital resources for United States educators inspired by the bicentennial celebration of the exploration conducted by Lewis and Clark (Lewis and Clark Gateway, 2002). These resources include maps, objects, and tools that represent Missouri specific aspects of the explorer’s journey.
