While this scenario may appear very futuristic, many of the technologies exist today for these activities and many communities are already embracing the power and educational opportunities of the Information Highway in their homes and in their classrooms. The challenge is bringing these opportunities to all children and all schools as quickly as we can. So, what is this thing called the Information Highway and how do we, as parents and educators, take advantage of what it has to offer and make it available to our children? To be simplistic, the Information Highway is the interconnection of thousands of computers through phone and cable lines that enables us to send and receive vast volumes of information at phenomenal speeds throughout the world. Many people refer to the Internet when talking about the Information Highway, as it currently serves as a type of backbone to the Information Highway. The Internet is also a network or interconnection of thousands of computers; however, it was originally established for defense purposes and later expanded to allow research and educational institutions the ability to share information through their computers and phone lines. Participants share their data, research findings and other information by making it accessible on their computers to others. In more recent years, thousands of individuals and organizations have connected to the Internet via various commercial online service companies, direct connections and dial-up services. Individuals and organizations today can access literally millions of pages of information from all over the world, if they have access to the Internet and know where and how to retrieve information.
