K12 and the web

K12 resources on and uses of the internet are becoming plentiful. Previously many home pages on the World Wide Web (WWW) were only text, but now students have created colorful graphics and even movies for the Web.

This paper discusses how students are gaining access to the internet and how educators are enabling that access to happen.
