Studying the effectiveness of using mobile cloud computing applications in learning

摘要

This research study mainly focused on the research of the application of cloud computing and mobile computing in the in E-learning environment. The objectives of this research paper are 1) to identify advantages and disadvantages associated with running cloud based applications on mobile devices, especially in the area learning. 2) to evaluate the performance and features that can expect from the use of cloud based application on a mobile device, what effects it will have on the device that runs, and 3) to analyze the results that can emerge when using cloud based applications on mobile devices. The study uses Cronbach's alpha to measure the validity and stability of the study questionnaire contents. We used the Spearman correlation and Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis to determine the impact of the dominating practices such as educational level, gender, age, and major on the variables of using cloud based applications on mobile devices.
