Abstract

Cloud computing can be seen as dynamic and virtual connection between computer systems. In this study, we present an action research developed in Higher Education. Therefore, the PowerPoint Online was an important feature of collaborative learning through cloud computing. Through the actions taken, it can be shown to create a environment interaction for the virtualization of computers as a pedagogical tool in preparing a seminar to the Environmental Chemistry discipline of the Post-Graduation Program in Agrochemical of UFV.
