In USA and across the globe, the public school education system has to grapple with a lot of resource constraints. Still, the number of students is generally always on the rise and there is also the urgency to deliver quality education to the students.

Cloud computing has lately emerged as a technology that is revolutionizing public school education systems across the globe. Many public schools already have cloud powered solutions in place, but the pandemic has further accelerated adoption rates.

The public cloud enables schools to keep their curriculum in digital form within the secure data centers of a Cloud Service Provider (CSP) like dinCloud. In addition to this, these learning resources are readily available to students over the internet.

Learning is no more limited to the campus only. This also allows public schooling institutions to keep their curriculums up to date with the latest emerging trends, as all the learning content is in digital format and easily editable.

Public schools have also opted to shift their Learning Management Systems (LMS) to the Cloud, creating further ease for students as well as parents. Teachers are also finding cloud powered education a practical solution, as they can still remain in touch with students.

Even small and low skilled IT teams of public schools can handle the various aspects of a cloud solution, as most of the heavy lifting is done by the Cloud Service Provider (CSP). Students are finding digital learning content much more engaging and immersive.

The network limitations of public schools, low bandwidth issues and the lack of training of on-campus IT staff have proved as a few limitations for the public education providers. These limitations can however be easily removed and the benefits are compelling.

It appears that sooner than later, public schools will catch up in terms of building their in-house capacities and reap optimal results by leveraging the Cloud.
