The Evolutionary Trend in Computing and the Challenges This Presents to the Academic Environment

Abstract

Cloud Computing and the use of the NET-COMPUTER have unlocked the door of high-tech education. The anytime-anywhere accessibility of information stored in distant cloud servers, has made it possible to seamlessly access courseware and educational materials from any device and from anywhere-anytime. Students can read and collaboratively work on some teacher/lecturer given assignment by use of any device and at any time. Besides the ease of access and collaboration, cloud-based education apps have solved the problem of storing data as well.
