Teachers and program designs based on the use of digital educational resources with increasing intensity and frequency activities. In most cases access to these resources is done in school and the entrance to the network, for the students to access content occurs simultaneously. Chances are, at that moment, in the center is conducting a similar activity for another class group and therefore, is competing for the use of a valuable shared resource: bandwidth Internet access.
Connectivity is defined as the ability to connect or make connections. This ability, in the context at hand, ie Internet access of schools, is conditioned by several factors. Within the working group on connectivity Plan for Digital Culture at the School , we are dealing with analyzing and finding the best solutions or, at least, the most viable to help schools and education authorities to optimize the use of this precious.
To advance the search for solutions, we have dissected the problem into three areas or components of connectivity: the communications backbone with which the autonomous region or country has the capillarity of broadband networks throughout the extent of the territory and finally, the distribution of bandwidth within schools. This article will deal only in summary form some of the contributions that have been made in the space of the capillary, leaving for another day aspects of other areas.
First, we have found through reports that have been sent by the autonomous communities, the most common connection of a school in Spain internet is via ADSL technology. We're talking about connections flow means 10 to 30 Mbs. While this technology in the home environment can still offer sufficient performance for most households in the case of access to schools it is weak. Its clear substitute is the connection to the fiber optic network, since both capacity obtained steadily as service quality is much higher.
There are already schools in those regions where they have the ability to hire their own connections, they are making the change of their ADSL lines for fiber optic connections. The same happens when the autonomous communities have centralized procurement capacity of the lines through competitions: install fiber optic where coverage permits. For rural centers, where the fiber has not yet arrived, it is opting in some regions by use of broadband wireless technology (WiMAX). It is a solution to be considered because, as the technology develops, it will obtain a rate considerably higher than the real bandwidth of ADSL transfer in these areas.
Just as a decade witnessed the gradual migration of our Internet access from modems connected to the switched telephone network to broadband ADSL ago gave us, now and perhaps assist in a range of Minor-time consolidation Internet connections over fiber optics, as traders are in full deployment of their networks and the costs begin to be assumable. Fibre connections offer another advantage: you can extend the bandwidth at much higher current levels (50 to 100 Mbs on average) using the same infrastructure. With bandwidth always happens that the more you have, the more they consume and always seems insufficient: content providers are designing new services and applications to be voracious consumers of the same in the next decade.
