Excerpts:<\/em><\/p>\n

Efforts to close the digital divide have ramped up during the pandemic, yet despite\u00a0creative solutions<\/u><\/a>\u00a0from district, town, and state officials across the country,\u00a0between<\/u><\/a>\u00a09 and 12 million students still lack adequate internet access.<\/p>\n

\nWhat Is Next Gen TV and This Application?<\/strong>
\nNext Gen TV, also known as ATSC 3.0, is a\u00a0new standard<\/u><\/a>\u00a0for broadcasting that is currently being launched at broadcast stations throughout the U.S. It is based on internet protocols and allows for targeted broadcasts to be sent as well as more robust datacasting (sending data via broadcasting).
