Implementation and use of cloud technologies in the educational process

The necessity of making changes in the educational process (EP) through the use of cloud, network technologies is considered. This training format allows you to apply new forms of training, communicate with teachers and students outside the classroom.
An experiment has been carried out showing the advantages of cloud technologies in organizing lifelong learning of students. For the study, two groups of 1st year students were taken. One group learned through a conservative, classroom EP, the other through the cloud. The students of the second group turned out to be more interested in learning, according of the final testing, they showed a high quality of residual knowledge.
The results of the study showed that the addition of cloud technologies to the educational process increases the student’s cognitive interest and allows him to be always and everywhere immersed in the EP. The modern student lives in the world of information technology and it is necessary for him to create a familiar atmosphere in education, to use the tools familiar to him. Learning should be more interactive. Then the student after graduation will become a real, knowledgeable specialist who will be able to apply the knowledge gained in his work. The disadvantages of cloud technologies have also been identified. The level of computer literacy of the majority of teachers will not allow them to use new solutions everywhere.
