Method 3 The Cloud

The cloud has become another way to use technology productively. It will more than likely replace many software applications because of its portability, it is free, and it is easy to use. I feel that it will become a fixture in the future. Middle school students feel very comfortable in the cloud and do not question it's reliablity or safety any more than a computer having to be restarted after a freeze. Many teachers use google docs because the students don't have to buy a flash drive or keep up with one. The document or spreadsheet is there when it is needed in the classroom, home, library etc. I understand that there are some problems and that we do not know what will happen to our private information if the cloud fails. However, I would say that I cautiously enjoy the cloud.
