Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is delivery of computing services over the Internet. Cloud services allow you to use hardware and software. It costs less, its more secure and a more reliable software. Examples of cloud computing is online file storage, social networking sites, and webmail. Cloud services should be combined to meet the needs of twenty first century educators and learners. The cloud computing model allows access to information and computer resources from anywhere and anytime on any device. The only thing that we need is the network connection. Google Glass is one of the most effective and helpful tools that help learners and educators. I can’t imagine my life without Google apps that make my life really easy while searching especially for literature reviews and books. The wealth of information we get by just fingertips is tremendous. Learning is not just happening in class but it’s ongoing while learners are out of their classroom. Google Glass extends learning beyond the physical classroom. Another good option that Google Glass offers is that we can engage everyone in any school community even the families are more involved than any other school that doesn’t use Google Glass.

What about Google Apps for education it has many helpful tools for everyone: Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Groups, Talk, and Sites. Each has its own characteristics and can be used for different purposes. Google apps is always up and running. Your data is safe, secure and in your control. You own and control your data by detailed privacy policy. You can get apps today and go sign up.


I recommend you more webs like www.chrom.google.com/webstore


Chrome books are great to use in classrooms. They are web based computers that are easy to use. Students open the web and sign in and search for the information they need, it’s not time consuming at all it saves valuable learning time inside the class. You don’t need to worry because everything is saved on the web. Students have web application for them to access. Chrome can be shared and they are saved. Another great tool for teachers this time is you tube for schools and teachers that allows you bring any educational video to class. www.youtube.com/teachers www.google.com/edu

 Finally, cloud computing offers benefits for both organizations and individuals.
