Cloud computing allows users to access computing resources like storage and applications over the Internet. It offers services like Microsoft SkyDrive, Google Drive, and Dropbox that provide online storage. Cloud computing benefits education by enabling browser-based access to educational tools from any device. It reduces IT maintenance costs through subscription pricing. However, cloud computing requires sufficient Internet bandwidth and accessibility can be lost if the Internet goes down.

1. What is “Cloud”
Computing?

2. What is “Cloud”
Computing?
Cloud computing is a recently
evolved computing terminology or
metaphor based on utility and
consumption of computing
resources

3. Why cloud computing?

4. Some example of cloud
computing applications that
could be useful for institutions of
higher education:

5. 1- sky Drive service from
Microsoft
Sky Drive is the best because the user has
to 7 GB free bytes Unlike other services that
area does not exceed 5 GB As for the
service and sacrifice of Microsoft operating
systems
support both Windows and Mac.

6. 2.Google Drive
service
Is a service provided by Google give you an area
of 5 GB free, supports multiple files and multiple
formats. Featuring service use across the web and
through (Android only), computers (Mac,
Windows), you can share files with several people
or with the public, which best supports the
amendment to the neuro files and create such as
Word and Excel, and PowerPoint.

7. 3. Drop Box Drop box
service
Month is considered at all, and the oldest.
Give you the service initially area 2 GB and
allow overpaid Amabaldawat or follow
through stages start to increase the space
free of charge. Featuring service that can be
used over the Web from any place or mobile
devices (iPhone, iPad, Android, Blackberry),
or through your computer (Windows, Mac,
Linux) your, well, you can specific file sharing
with a group of people and see the last
additions and modifications on behalf of all
people, you can raise all kinds of files on that

8. Cloud Computing System
Cloud Computing System like other
technologies contain the pros and cons, but in
the field of education will be a major tributary of
the e-learning and mobile private education,
education, widespread, and perhaps the only
challenge that must be overcome is the overall
service and fast Internet access coverage.

13. Cloud Computing in Education
Statistics Highlights:
A-27% of K-12 IT professionals and 34% of
higher education IT professionals were
implementing cloud-based services as of May,
2011.
B-The percentage of educational IT budgets
spent on cloud computing will rise steadily in
the next 5+ years

14. Benefits of Cloud Computing in
Education:
A-Browser-based access – Teachers, students and
staff can access educational tools from anywhere,
with any device.
B-Testing cloud solutions is more simple than
testing in-house
solutions.
C-IT maintenance costs are reduced dramatically.
Subscription based pricing models allow for
scalability and growth.

15. Disadvantages of cloud
computing in education:
Increased internet bandwidth is
necessary to allow for use of cloud
services.
If the internet goes down, most
tools and services will be
inaccessible.
Costs increase dramatically as the
number of subscribed students
