Securing Technology for Virtual Collaborations and Learning Process Using Cloud Computing Environment

This study determined the influence of securing technology for virtual collaborations and learning process using cloud computing environment. The design was a descriptive survey research design. Survey research design was considered most appropriate for this study because it allows the researcher to make inference about the population by selecting and studying the sample for the study. The population of the study comprised of 206 library professionals from the Nigerian Library Association, Cross River State Chapter. The sample size was the entire population; hence census enumeration sampling technique was employed. The study utilized a researchers’ developed instrument entitled “Securing Technology for Virtual Collaborations and Learning Process Questionnaire (STVCLPQ)” validated by experts in Measurement and Evaluation. The reliability estimate of the instrument was established through trial testing of the instrument which was administered to 28 respondents who were not part of the final study area but share the same characteristics. Cronbach Alpha reliability method was used to test the internal consistency of the instrument and the reliability index ranged from 0.79 to 0.83 respectively. The statistical analysis used was one-way Analysis of variance at 0.05 level of significance. The results revealed that there is a significant influence of zoom and zoho technology on virtual collaborations and learning process using cloud computing environment. The study recommends among others that as library professionals are well known for their information dissemination, more emphasis should be place on retraining of its members on the use of virtual collaborations and learning tools global interactions.
