  • QUILT CIRCLE2020 a Letter from the President
    THE QUILT CIRCLE2020 A Letter From the President This 2020 Quilt Circle edition commemorates the 20th Anniversary of The Quilt. The fabric of our research and education (R&E) networking community has never been stronger. While our Quilt community has evolved in new and exciting ways in the past two decades, we have also been faced with a number of challenges which we take head-on and always with the spirit of collaboration. As we address the unprecedented challenges presented by the current global public health crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the work of our members is more important than ever to the missions of their member communities. U.S. higher education institutions rely on R&E networks to give them a competitive edge in the most impactful scientific research initiatives which is essential in this crisis. We connect the educational institutions that support university medical centers and their associated hospitals. R&E networks also connect tens of thousands of other community anchor institutions, including K-12 schools, public libraries, local/state government, research sites, cultural institutions, public safety, and tribal lands. Being responsive and providing vital networking infrastructure and resources right now to address immediate needs is who we are and what we do. R&E networks are part of our nation’s critical infrastructure. This year’s edition of The Quilt Circle showcases several examples of the key role of R&E network members in both providing and facilitating the use-network infrastructure to further scientific discovery and collaborations at higher education institutions of all sizes.

  • Broadband for Education: the National Internet2 K20 Initiative’S and WICHE’S Recommendations to the FCC
    Broadband for Education: The National Internet2 K20 Initiative’s and WICHE’s Recommendations to the FCC Who are we? Internet2: We bring together Internet2’s world-class network and research community members with innovators from colleges and universities, primary and secondary schools, libraries, museums and other educational institutions, the full spectrum of America’s education community, including both formal and informal education. The National K20 Initiative extends new technologies, applications, and rich educational content to all students, their families and communities – no matter where they’re located. We have had immense success connecting the institutions above – in fact, over 65,000 institutions are now connected to the National Internet2 network – but to realize fully the potential of Internet2 all institutions must have adequate bandwidth. What follows are principles we endorse and urge the FCC to adopt. We divide our recommendations into two interrelated categories: connectivity and e-rate support. Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE): WICHE and its 15 member states work to improve access to higher education and ensure student success. Our student exchange programs, regional initiatives, and our research and policy work allow us to assist constituents in the West and beyond. Equitable access to broadband technology and, in particular, technology-enabled education, is among our strategies. At present much of the West, particularly the “frontier West,” has little or no access to adequate bandwidth. Many of our institutions are not among those connected by and participating in the Internet2 K20 Initiative. The principles and recommendations below would remedy this situation. Our recommendations: (1) Connectivity • Elementary schools, secondary schools, and branch libraries should be connected at 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps.

By now, everyone in Alberta is feeling the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Combined with existing budget restrictions, WITH THE this has been one of the most difficult times ever faced by the province’s public and education sectors. I’m pleased to see the spirit of collaboration and community rise to the fore, as Alberta’s schools, post-secondary institutions, libraries, government PRESIDENT & CEO agencies, and start-ups have come together to support each other through this period. As this annual review will show, Cybera has been playing its part to facilitate these collaborations, both through offering shared services that increase efficiencies and lower costs, and through bringing groups together to exchange ideas. We now serve a wider community than ever before, having surpassed the 100-member mark this past year. Today, nearly 850,000 Albertans utilize the services Cybera provides, which created over $11 million in net savings for the public and education sectors this past year. Mindful of the important role we play in maintaining — and improving access to — digital infrastructure for such a large group, we took some time this past year to review our mission and strategy. We wanted to ensure our mandate and actions match the changing needs and priorities of our member community.

  • Cybera White Paper: Impact of COVID-19 on Rural Internet in Alberta, and Necessary Next Steps
    Cybera White Paper: Impact of COVID-19 On Rural Internet In Alberta, And Necessary Next Steps Cybera Inc. Calgary Office: Suite 200, 3512 - 33 St NW, Calgary, AB T2L 2A6 T: 403-210-5333 Edmonton Office: Suite 1101, 10065 Jasper Avenue NW, Edmonton, AB T5J 3B1 cybera.ca | [email protected] | @cybera ​ ​ ​ ​ Abstract In response to the growing COVID-19 pandemic, on March 16, 2020, the Government of Alberta ordered the immediate cancellation of on-site classes at schools and universities in the province. Today, 741,802 K-12 students and 194,010 post-secondary students in Alberta are learning from home, and will likely continue to do so until at least the end of current school semesters.1 2 A significant portion of the internet bandwidth used by these students (and their instructors) has now migrated from SuperNet and CyberaNet (which supply much of the internet connections to Alberta’s educational institutions), to private internet plans on residential networks. Overall, global internet traffic increased 56% in March, and has remained at above-average levels since.3 In this white paper, we will outline the scope of the problem in Alberta based on data from Cybera’s member base and the Research and Education Network usage statistics, as well as outreach conducted by Cybera with our K-12 and post-secondary community members, and Alberta’s rural internet service providers. This white paper will demonstrate that a significant portion of the province’s population are vulnerable to unaffordable overage charges and intermittent disconnections of service. We believe all levels of government must act now to mitigate the financial and social harms to Albertans.
