I agree that is far from an ideal situation, especially when you want multiple students to be accessing and using Internet-based resources. This is the benchmark, however, that I think many people have used for "bridging the digital divide." It's a good step, but I agree far from where we need to be with truly "connected classrooms." It is an equal or perhaps even more difficult challenge to help teachers teach in digitally connected ways using technology-- I think the equipment and the actual connections to the Internet are just a small part of the overall recipe for connected learning. This is why I continue to be an advocate for 1:1 learning initiatives. Until each learner has his/her own wireless computing device, I don't think the digital component to learning can potentially become truly transparent.

In my public school classroom there is one drop and one computer. It is a teacher station (for myself and the other teacher in the room) and students are not permitted on it but network rules. Is that a connected classroom? It doesn't meet my defination... I still have to take my students to the computer lab to work on our wiki or blog or research.
