• Resumen

  • A cloud network system is combined with standard computing applications and a course management system to provide a robust method for sharing data among students. This system provides a unique method to improve data analysis by easily increasing the amount of sampled data available for analysis. The data can be shared within one course as well as used in interdisciplinary environments. Student accessibility is improved over other data sharing methods with the benefit of minimal oversight required by the instructor. The networked system is ideal for large enrollment and research-based laboratory courses. Methods for implementation in research labs are also described.
