Iowa Distance Education Alliance
Iowa’s Star Schools Project demonstrates and supports the use of a statewide telecommunications network for K-12 education. Iowa’s state-owned Iowa Communications Network (ICN) provides full motion, two-way interactive video, data (Internet), and voice services. There are currently over 700 ICN interactive video classrooms. Project goals include: developing multimedia instructional materials; supporting telecommunications and technology staff development and integration; providing access to distance education information and resources; and providing educational opportunities via the ICN.
