Abstract

Cloud technologies are integral to daily existence of many authorities as they are attractive by their immensity and virtualization of resources. Cloud services open up possibilities to be widespread in the education sector too. In addition, such services have become an integral feature for any modern teacher because of their large toolkit. This article discusses the research findings relative to the leadership cloud services using by Ukrainian teachers. This raises the question of modern technologies in teachers’ use and which we so often hear about. The goal of research is to find out how common is the use of leadership cloud services in educational communities of Ukraine. With that in mind, the article defines the teachers’ proficiency levels for leadership cloud services characterizing them as the “passive user” with the average awareness between men and women (42%), as the “active user” – (46%) and as the “expert” – (13%). The “active user”, as has been revealed, has the dominant proficiency level for cloud services. The main methodological toolkit of the study has been presented as the questionnaire “The Place of Leadership Cloud Services in the Organization of the Educational Process”. The study has been performed with the involvement of 169 teachers from Ukrainian educational communities.
