Abstract :
In this research, we classified the various applications of Cloud Computing technologies in educational institutions. In addition, we identified the theoretical frameworks through which actual implementations can be evaluated. A case study was used to show the applicability of the theoretical frameworks. Upon completion of this research, a list of Critical Success Factors will be derived from both quantitative and qualitative data. The findings will provide support to planning and implementation of Cloud Computing technologies in educational institutions.
