A Study on E-Learning using Cloud Computing (original) (raw)

Design of Cloud-based E-learning System for Virtual Classroom

Cloud computing provides a great collection of computing resources that can be rapidly and elastically provisioned and released based on users' demand to serve a wide and regularly expanding variety of information processing requirements. Due to its tremendous advantages this technology is maturing quickly and is being adopted in many applications including government, business, and education. This research employs the Cloud as a learning environment for teaching Computer Science and related courses by removing the locality constraints, while simultaneously improving students' understanding of the material provided through practical experience with the finer details and subjects' complexities. Most of the universities infrastructures are underutilized and in some cases over utilization of resources occurs, in order to balance the usage of the resources there is need for an elastic technology. In order to develop an e-Learning platform for virtual or open distance learning (ODL) undergraduate students of computer science new methodologies (like cloud based e-Learning) should be taken into consideration for project, problem based learning and virtual computorium. The research identified several potential Computer Science courses which could be launched and taught through Clouds. This framework addresses the services of cloud computing in a new dimension and each layer (in virtual classroom cloud-based system) specifies the essential components (that is matching of computer science courses with cloud layers) needed to construct an academic cloud in an open distance learning environment. And finally, a way of implementing the framework is proposed.

Cloud-based e-learning

Cloud-based e-learning, 2018

Learning (and self-learning) is one of the most important activities in human professional and personal life. Over the past several years, there has been a very strong tendency to emphasize the electronic form of education. The aim is the students to have access to learning materials anytime, anywhere and through various types of electronic devices connected to Internet (desktop computers, laptops, smartphones, phablets, tablets, etc.). With the increasingly strong use of cloud technologies, many solutions have been provided for flexible planning and implementation of e-learning. The necessary knowledge is given in a modern, cheap and easily accessible way. This article overviews the concept and the services provided by cloud technologies. An example is presented for the use of cloud computing during the students' education at the Plovdiv University "Paisii Hilendarski" within the "Web programming" course realized on the base of WordPress and using the cloud platform CloudAccess.

Cloud Computing Enabled Virtual Learning Environment

International Journal of Knowledge Society Research, 2013

Recent advances in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) provide an opportunity to build a self growing and sharing virtual environment for teaching and learning. Cloud computing is one of the latest technological advancement in ICT domain. Cloud computing technologies have changed the way applications are developed and accessed. A Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) is a system for delivering learning materials to students via the web. Cloud computing is provides one of the most emerging cost effective solution for virtual learning and teaching environment. This paper discusses how cloud computing has been contributing to virtual learning environment and an overview of the current state of the structure of Cloud Computing based e-learning is discussed. The readers will also find a brief overview of cloud computing and the different efficient cloud based virtual learning models. Towards the end different offers from different cloud vendors are discussed.

E-learning on the Cloud – An Analysis

2019

Cloud providers have platforms for users to design, deploy and run applications located in the cloud. Additionally, computing power and storage are also being provided on the cloud. These provisions available on the cloud makes it most suitable for e-leaning purposes. E-learning provides a web-based forum for instructors and students to meet. Both hardware and software systems are required for this purpose. This can easily be implemented using available cloud infrastructure. This study examines current trends in the cloud e-learning areas and provides a useful guide for future research direction.
