- 5. ICT Literacy Definition ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) literacy is using digital technology, communications tools, and/or networks to access, manage, integrate, evaluate, and create information in order to function in a knowledge society. The five critical components of ICT literacy are: Access - knowing about and knowing to collect and/or retrieve information Access – knowing about and knowing how to collect and/or retrieve information Manage – applying an existing organizational or classification scheme Integrate – interpreting and representing information. It involves summarizing, comparing and contrasting Evaluate – making judgments about the quality, relevance, usefulness, or efficiency of information. Create – generating information by adapting, applying, designing, inventing, or authoring information. AMAR PATEL +91 - 9998727199
