This whitepaper from the United States Distance Learning Association looks at how mobile broadband is transforming education and driving learning outcomes, especially for rural and low-income communities. Mobile distance learning is integral to improving school efficiencies, increasing the supply and quality of teachers, engaging parents and families and increasing students’ college and career readiness. In addition, the emerging deployment of 4G LTE will provide even greater speeds with reduced network congestion, enhanced streaming and fewer delays, enabling students to access real-time instruction over an entirely mobile network.
