Cloud Computing Technologies Available Today
![Page 4: A managed, cost effective ICT environment for schools](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070423/568167c8550346895ddd161c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Today, ICT in Victorian schools is...
• Becoming mobile
• Converging on the cloud
• Becoming more affordable
As these trends continue, ICT devices could be on school booklists in the next 1-3 years.
![Page 5: A managed, cost effective ICT environment for schools](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070423/568167c8550346895ddd161c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Today's challenges in supporting ICT in the classroom environment• Increased use and reliance on ICT.
• Increased computer-student ratio (1:5 – 1:2 – 1:1 – 2:1).
• Increased demand for services.
• Increased expectation of wireless technology.
• At this stage – no major change to our ICT support systems
![Page 6: A managed, cost effective ICT environment for schools](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070423/568167c8550346895ddd161c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The challenges of ICT from a school perspective..
In the left corner – innovation, eLearning, new e-curriculum delivery models
In the right corner – support, management, maintenance, $$$

Efficiency?
1600 different school curric network solutions
= little/no economy of scale in technical solutions
= potential for overworked technicians
= an inefficient system for future ICT service delivery
