Course learning for me
Staring from week 1 until now this course has made me learn lot of practical implementation of digital learning technologies like I learned creating blog,creating and updating wiki,e portfolio,cloud computing and online course creation techniques and live video interaction.


Liking About My Learning
I was aware of few things that we did in all these past weeks but never practically used it so this course has given me opportunity to practically learn which I think will going to help me in my future and moreover add to my skills.

Improvement About Course 
I think course is designed very well to meet student requirements but there is always room for improvement and I think course could have some group activities for few week so that students will be able to know importance of team work.

week 8 Cloud computing


 8.1.1 Cloud tool
Box is cloud tool that i have chosen because I like its  interesting features.

8.1.3 Exploring box
Based on my exploration on box i have been able to post my review

 8.1.4 Review of cloud tool's function
Box is freemium cloud tool that provides online sharing of files and content management services.Box is a cloud computing business which provides file-sharing, collaborating, and other tools for working with files that are uploaded to its servers. Users can determine how their content can be shared with other users. Users may invite others to view or edit an account's shared files, upload documents and photos to a shared files folder and give other users rights to view shared File.It allows to upload photos, videos and other files to Box and download them to  device and allows to view and print 100+ file types, including PDF, Word, Excel, AI, and PSD.

Personal discovery about box 
I found that box app  allowed me to Access  content online, from  desktop, and on  Android phone or tablet and easy to stay in synchronized with all content.it also allows offline access to content which has really attracted me toward it.Real-time search option is there and search within PDF, PowerPoint, Excel, Word docs can be done.I can save every important stuff online and can use whenever i need even with no internet connection.

Use of box for personal learning
 I would use box for learning new things whose document are in my laptop but i cannot access them because i am not present at home so i can still access my document and learn from box even if there is no internet connection so in that way i will stay connected to what i am learning and i can do all other important job as well .


 Link of two example
Using box one can Open,edit and save files in Box directly from Microsoft Office and Office 365 Pro Plus on Windows PC using box for office whose link is https://app.box.com/services/browse/popular/box_for_office
