Abstract

In this technology era, educational institution heavily avail the technology for teaching, learning and researching across the world. The aim of the study is to describe the development of Cloud Computing Application Scale for its use and to verify the Utilization of Cloud Computing Application among the postgraduate students. The sample of the study consists of 100 postgraduate students in face to face courses and the researcher adopted survey method for the data collection. Factor analysis and ‘t’ test were employed for selecting and finalizing the items. Finally the researcher framed the well prepared Utilization of Cloud Computing Application scale.

Keywords:
