Saksham ReflectionsAmrita School of Arts & Science

1. Photostory 3 tool can be used in multiple creative ways. It can be used in subjects like mathematics, visual media, computer science; ranging from topics like artistic portfolios, use & detailing of colours, shades to processes in science & different phenomenon.

2. Things like cloud computing , sky drive are easy to use; people with minimum IT skills or new to IT can learn & use it easily in academics with a bit of orientation about it.

3. Mathematics 4.0 is a wonderful application. It is equally useful for students, academicians & researchers even to other administrative staff for doing simple to complicated mathematical solutions; as it provides multiple calculation options, ready formulae on various topics, graphical representation of equations. The export to word facility in Math 4.0 makes things easy for lecturers as they can use it in preparing question papers easily.

• Working with team by using Skydrive in different locations for data collection, report preparations, content generation etc. can be done easily and applied with no additional cost to the institution.

• Now interactive syllabus preparation has been made easy by use of LCDS. One can not be physically present in classroom but can keep students engaged by preparing interactive student oriented content hosted on local browser or workgroup.
