Technologies that change the world

We bet you’ll not find the person who doesn’t know about Internet and how to use it. Survey shows that every second user use cloud for data exchange and storage. Cloud is very useful and new thing for most audience. If we go back in 4-5 years to past, we see that cloud is used only by IT- and tech-guys. Nowadays, cloud services are used in banking, medicine, logistics etc.

Yes, this technology has not only pros but cons (say hello to Jenifer Lawrence). But it goes without saying – the level of convenience provided by cloud services is unreachable for other ways of data storage and transfer.

You can stop worry about empty space of your flash drive. Cloud will save your data without any device. You can stop to take part in forward-zigzag on your corporate mailbox. Cloud help to work together with document in its current state, without dubs and copies.

Feb, 1st, 2019. Nailya Batrova and Andrew Danilov of Department of Bilingual and Digital Education has run workshop dedicated to use cloud services in teacher’s work. Key audience of the workshop is IPIC staff members, and there took part teachers and professors from various departments of the Institute.

Presenters showed the key opportunities of cloud service by Google (Drive, Docs, Slides etc.).

IPIC teachers appreciated the opportunities and prospects for further use of new discoveries and wished to continue the workshop sessions in near future.
