由于叙利亚持续的战斗局势，首都大马士革周围的大多数私立大学不得不放弃校园，搬到市内更安全的地方。就提交人而言，新的地点没有配备任何能够通过互联网提供课程内容的系统。此外，由于成本高昂和持续性的不确定性，大学管理层没有意愿在新的地方投资建立电子学习系统。唯一的好处是互联网在大多数地区仍然可以使用。因此，教学人员想到使用由许多提供商在WEB上提供的免费存储服务来托管课程内容作为开始。这很好，但它没有实现所有必要的功能。因此，我们开始使用云计算管理课程的新系统。新系统利用在WEB上免费提供的“平台即服务”模式，作为第一步，能够以电子方式分发课程材料，并打算逐步发挥更多的功能。
Due to the ongoing fight situation in Syria, most of the private universities around the capital Damascus had to abandon their campuses and move to safer locations inside the city. In the case of the authors the new place was not equipped with any system for enabling the delivery of course contents over the Internet. Further more, university administration did not have the will to invest in establishing an e-learning system in the new place due to the high cost and uncertainty of continuity. The only good thing was that Internet was still working in most areas. So the teaching staff thought of using the free storage service offered by a number of providers on the WEB for hosting course contents as a start. This worked well, but it did not fulfill all necessary functions. Therefore, we started working on a new system utilizing Cloud Computing for managing courses. The new system utilizes a "Platform as a Service" model offered for free on the WEB to enable distributing course materials electronically as a first step, and is intended to perform more function gradually.
