Abstract
Nowadays, innovative technological solutions for providing access to electronic resources and their configuration within a cloud-based university educational environment have given rise to diverse research trends especially for learning Math and Computer Science disciplines. This article outlines the conceptual framework of the study by reviewing existing approaches for electronic resources access organization within cloud-based settings. The cloud-based learning component providing Maxima system access with the use of the hybrid service model is described and proved. The problems of learning components quality evaluation in the cloud-based learning environment are outlined. Indicators of cloud-based learning resources quality evaluation are proposed. An empirical estimation of the proposed approach and current developments of its implementation are provided.
