Sažetak
Advances in technology brought changes to many sectors, including education. With the development of mobile devices and availability of low cost or free online services and applications, the content-centric course design approach and the standard LMS are no longer meeting the student’s preferences and needs. The development of cloud computing and its pay-as-you-go paradigm are a potential solution to the problems which higher education presently has to face – low budget and lack of computing power for researching. Despite the advantages of cloud computing, the universities are still seen as “early-adopters” due to the security issues. This paper describes the situation at the University of Rijeka, Department of Informatics, and the process of migration to a new cloud-based learning platform.
