Abstract

The article analyzes the current stage of educational studies of the cloud-based learning systems. The relationship between the notions of the cloud-based learning system and the cloud-based learning environment are investigated. It was found that the researchers paid most attention to the design of a cloud-based learning environment. However, in the process of a cloud-based environment design, the researchers consider a cloud-based system as a component within the cloud-based learning environment of as a stage in the process of design. It is shown that in the research literature there is no single interpretation of the concept of a cloud-based system for educational purposes. Still the number of basic approaches to the interpretation of the concept under investigation are revealed. The first approach is based on the understanding of the system, as a set of cloud services or cloud-based technologies. The second approach is to onsider a separate clo d service as a cloud-based learning system. In this case, the cloud service tools should include such components that cover the content, the tools, the forms and the methods of learning. The structure of the cloud-based learning system within the interpretation of the latest works of Ukrainian researchers is considered.

Highlights

  • 1.1 The problem statement The use of the cloud technologies and services in the educational process is a rather promising direction of modern educational research

  • Al-Jabri argue that the gradual introduction of cloud services is recommended, starting from the traditional cloud computing systems

  • Some researchers understand the system of certain cloud services under this notion

Summary

Introduction

1.1 The problem statement The use of the cloud technologies and services in the educational process is a rather promising direction of modern educational research. Shyshkina “Theoretical and methodological principles of formation and development of the cloud-based educational and research environment of higher educational institution” (2016) [31], Nataliia V. Voloshyna “The use of a hybrid cloud-based learning environment for forming the self-education competence of future IT specialists” (2018) [40] etc. A number of planed research works were devoted to this topic: “Methodology of the cloud-based learning and research environment formation in the pedagogical educational institution” (SR No 0115U002231, 2015–2017), “Adaptive cloud-based system of secondary schools teachers training and professional development” (SR No 0118U003161, 2018–2020), “The development of information and communication competence of teachers in a cloud-based learning environment” The relationship between such concepts as “cloud-based systems” and “cloud-based environments” is not completely determined
