Abstract
Internet, una de las herramientas más populares y de mayor capacidad de comunicación e información que existen. La riqueza de Internet en contenidos es mucho mayor que la de cualquier biblioteca del mundo, además de estar actualizándose continuamente y lo mejor de todo al alcance de nuestra mano, de manera inmediata, lo único que necesitamos es un ordenador con conexión. Su contenido es tan diverso que podríamos afirmar que si buscamos algo en ella y no lo encontramos, es que no existe. Uno de los impactos más significativos de Internet es el que tiene sobre la educación, proporciona aprender con libertad, colaborar de forma interactiva con otros usuarios o estudiantes y compartir los recursos. Si a todo esto le añadimos la computación en la nube descubrimos un nuevo mundo de posibilidades. Las plataformas de educación como por ejemplo aulas virtuales para universidades a distancia han facilitado el acceso a la educación a nivel mundial.
Hoy en día tener conexión a Internet se considera igual de necesario que la electricidad o el consumo de agua en nuestras casas. Pero como siempre sucede lo que nosotros damos por sentado y consideramos esencial en nuestro día a día no es así para las personas que viven en países con recursos limitados o subdesarrollados, en los que ni siquiera las necesidades realmente básicas y esenciales como la comida o el agua pueden garantizarse. Mutokamwoyo Cloud pretende solventar esta falta de recursos educativos gracias a estas dos herramientas: Internet y la nube.
The Internet, one of the most popular and powerful communication tool and information provider of the world. Internet's content wealth is much bigger than any library in the world, besides it is continuously updating and best of all, it's on the reach of our hands, immediately, all you need is just a computer with a network connection. Its content is so diverse that we could say, "if we're looking for some kind of information and we are unable to find it, it will probably not exist". Internet usage in education has seen tremendous growth, not only because of the freedom learning, but the faster interaction with another users and sharing resources. If we add Cloud computing to the mix it opens up a whole new world of possibilities. Learning platforms such as virtual classrooms for distance universities have provided an easier and worldwide way access to education. Nowadays have an Internet connection is considered as needed as electricity or current water in our homes. However, as always happens, things we take for granted or required, (from our point of view) are not for people who live in underdeveloped and limited resources countries, in which even the truly and most basic essential needs like food or water can't be granted. Mutokamwoyo Cloud tries to solve these lack of education resources thanks to these two tools: The Internet and Cloud Computing.
