Internet2 Awareness and Education
October 14th, 2002
Objectives: To promote Internet2 capability of this high-speed network for collaborating with colleagues at other institutions and research agencies. To educate faculty, researchers, and staff on the use and benefits of video-conferencing as well as transmitting large files of data and/or images across the Internet2 Abilene network.
Current State: UMB is now a primary member of Internet2. The Center for Information Technology Services is in the planning and discussion phase with the Internet2 organization as well as with UMB Schools for having an "Internet2" day and "show and tell" sessions for UMB faculty and researchers.
Schedule:
Oct., 2002: Finalize selection of UMB "Internet2" Day (sometime in early 2003) Schedule Internet2 education and demonstration sessions with UMB Schools
Nov: Developing the schedule of presentations, demonstrations, and discussions for the UMB Internet2 Day. Invitations to faculty and researchers for presenting as well as for attending the UMB Internet2 Day Begin Internet2 "show and tell" sessions at UMB Schools
Jan./Feb., 2003: UMB "Internet2 Day".
March/April: Finish first round of Internet2 education and demonstration sessions with UMB Schools.
Outcome: UMB faculty, researchers and staff will gain an understanding of how to use video-conferencing technologies and how to transmit files from their computers to colleagues at other Internet2 member institutions and agencies. An acquired knowledge of how to use this high-speed research and teaching network will hopefully lead to additional collaborative teaching and educational programs as well as collaborative research projects between UMB faculty and their colleagues at other Internet2 member institutions.
Goal: To increase research and educational activity through the use of the Internet2 network, and as a result of this increased activity, additional revenues would be generated for UMB.
