Facilitating an Online and Sustainable Learning Environment for Cloud Computing Using an Action Research Methodology

Abstract

In this chapter, a research plan is presented to investigate online teaching and evaluation analysis for cloud computing using an action research methodology to enable sustainable learning environment. Using online teaching, the authors planned to conduct a thorough evaluation of student learning implementation in order to identify both merits and challenges. An investigation of the authors' own teaching and learners' understanding while working together as a team on a cloud computing project has assisted in finding the perfect methods for improving both. Further, the authors used action research methodology to analyze the literature and scholarship critically and designed best practices for action plan to facilitate an online and sustainable learning environment for cloud computing. Moreover, possible ethical concerns have been considered as students worked in a team for a group project. Finally, they have discussed the plans for monitoring and evaluation of the action and impact assessment.
