What advantages can broad bandwidth and wireless networking offer schools? Describe the current technologies available for wireless connectivity.
Broad bandwidth and wireless networking are very important to schools. Wireless networking connects computers to a server and to each other just as wireless cell phones are connected to a phone company network, although the technology that is used to connect them differs. Broad bandwidth is a technology that allows the access of large files almost instantaneously. These things offer schools accessibility for the most part. It allows them to be able to connect students with the world almost at a virtual level.
Some current technologies that are available through wireless connectivity are WiFi and Bluetooth technology. WiFi stands for wireless fidelity, and it is a wireless networking technology that is based on the common 802.11 standard, a standard set for Wireless LAN technology. Bluetooth technology allows for different types of devices like the computer and printer to be able to communicate with each other.
Technology is constantly changing and it is the educator's responsibility to make certain that students get what they need.
