School in the Cloud

The Future of Learning: School in the Cloud

Have you heard about school in the cloud???

What is school in the cloud??? ... is that study up into the sky??? In the cloud???...Hoho...absolutely not..When I was heard about it at first, I've been thinking a lot what is it actually....

As for me, the "School in the cloud" is a term which internet and computers are fully utilized by the students and teachers. Lots of knowledge that we can get if we use the internet wisely and precisely. Even, we can get a degree by taking an online courses. 

The educational researcher, Dr Sugata Mitra, says that the way schools currently constructed are not needed anymore. He asks the community to help him to design the School in the Cloud, a learning lab where children/students can explore and learn from each other using online resources, collaboration, and mentoring from the cloud. Dr. Sugata Mitra's "Hole in the Wall" experiments have shown that children are able to teach themselves and each other without formal teaching, if they are motivated by curiosity and peer interest.
