No More Floppies or Disks

If you are like me, the days of loading applications onto your computer from a floppy disk or a CD seemed like an activity of only a short time ago. But those days may soon be gone forever. As high-speed connectivity becomes more and more commonplace in homes and schools, everything is being delivered online. All of this has many advantages such as reducing compatibility issues and eliminating the need for IT departments to install software in schools and businesses. Even Google is getting into the fray by offering a suite of applications linked to online connectivity.

Certainly we at Proquest LearningPage are aware of the advantages of delivering low-cost resources 24/7 to teachers’ desktops or laptops. We are committed to offering more and more quality instructional resources for students and teachers via the Internet.
