What do we do when we want to find
out something we are not sure of? We Google it! So what is ICT? Well, I asked Google,
and what was the very top link? Wikipedia!
Wikapedia states that ICT is :
Information and communications technology (ICT) is often used as an extended
synonym for information
technology (IT), It is a more expansive term (i.e. more broad in
scope) that stresses the role of unified
communications and the integration of telecommunications
(telephone lines and
wireless signals), computers as well as necessary enterprise
software, middleware,
storage, and audio-visual systems, which enable users to access, store,
transmit, and manipulate information
In my eyes, ICT is the future, it is
how we buy a bus ticket, it is how we book our holidays, it is how we speak to
our insurance companies, and it is how we see our money. Children need to have
these skills to succeed in life. Right now, it’s all about tablets and
smartphones, iPads/Tablets, Netbooks, Computers, TV’s, mobile phones and
Smartboards.
