Abstract

In today’s scenario technology has become an important part of life. Technology plays a very vast and significant role in the tremendously increasing education system. Having technical education has become mandatory in current time for education and research. Every day new technologies and researches are coming up to improve the teaching methodologies providing a refined and easier way of learning and practical approaches. Cloud computing is a rapidly emerging technology for education 4.0 in recent years. Cloud computing is all about enabling resources to users according to their need over the internet. Cloud computing, mainly provides the services like servers, databases, networking, storage etc. This paper presents implementation of a learning kit consisting of cloud integration with computing platform i.e. raspberry pi; multiple sensors have been connected to it. The main aim of integration of cloud computing with raspberry pi is to collect and monitor the real time data generated via cloud. This paper describes the implementation, challenges and other aspects of cloud based learning kit in education and research area and how to use these types of kits for learner, educator and researcher.
