6. Students currently use their own computers and school computers at the same time, so saving files on a websites such as Google Docs would allow the students a better and faster access than using CDs, Flash drives, etc...

Large co operations such as IBM and Google are encouraging and contributing the use and learning of cloud computing in universities by offering university students, professors, and researchers anytime, anywhere access to software development tools via cloud computing. This enhances the research being done by the universities and increases the number of resources available to increase the efficiency and speed as the softwares do not need to be installed.
