broadcast made the
electronics new important
subject of education in
20th and 30th of the last
century.

broadcast and the school
televisions' made the
electronics tool of public
education in 40th , 50th

recorders’ and PCs’ price
turned into one which can
be reached in 70th and
80th .

Computing.
Running of increasingly more
complicated application
programs, transfer and
storage of increasingly more
data files and increasingly
more speed of data transfer
or processing make an
increasingly more hardware
and software demand on
users.
Cloud Learning
It is the recognition, which
born service of Cloud
Computing.
Heart of this service is that:
all ambitious tasks of data
storage and processing are
executed by providers in
the Cloud, and user must
have a simple internet

services are free, or for
any price – which is
significantly lower than
users own hardware and
software charge should be.
