Cloud Computing and its Impact in Education, Teaching and Research-A Scientific Review

Cloud Computing is one of the important facets in societal activities and development. With Cloud computing, any user can create, edit, as well as save files in the cloud according to their requirement. And such self-services like Google Docs are growing rapidly. The advantage of Cloud Computing is useful in accessing applications anytime and anywhere and at any time of facilitates access to data and information without limitation of spatial and temporal limits. Modern e-learning is lies on flexibility to education, and research including transcending geographical boundaries and therefore no issues of time constraints are raised [5]. Different basic and influential lectures including peer learning is positively possible using modern days emerging IT tools like Cloud. Cloud-based E-learning allows face-to-face like a classroom environment, and traditional education at the same time to be enhanced using modern features and facilities. It is also worth to note that different places or even separate countries to work on one file interactively and simultaneously using Cloud based educational platforms. Educational systems including academics, administration, and office management become easy using Cloud Computing based systems. This work is a theoretical and conceptual one deals with basic aspects of Cloud Computing including features and types, role and significance in education and teaching-learning, Work also emphasized about the basic, emerging and future applications of Cloud Computing for Education and allied activities and management
