Abstract
Rural America needs access to broadband, or high speed Internet, to grow and prosper. Its schools, healthcare systems, and business environments would all benefit from increased adoption and use of broadband. Rural America’s economy could benefit through the direct and indirect creation of jobs as well (International Telecommunications Union, 2012). But much would have to change. The entire broadband system would need to be improved, including networks, devices, content, applications, and educational training to understand the benefits of broadband adoption in rural America. Fortunately, the creation of a national plan to address this issue has been underway since 2009.
