- 1. INTRODUCTION TO ICT Created by: Norwin C. Adriatico
- 2. 1. Understand the importance of ICT; 2. uncover the role of ICT in the different fields of expertise; 3. to be informed about the generations in the evolution of computers; 4. to redefine ICT in the digital age. Objectives
- 3. What is ICT? - the forms of technology that are used to transmit, process, store, create, display, share or exchange information by electronic means. UNESCO, 2010 ICT Overview
- 4. Information - refers to the knowledge obtained from reading, investigation, study, or research. ICT Overview
- 5. Communication - it is a process in which information is exchanged between individuals through verbal and non-verbal means. ICT Overview
- 6. Technology - are powerful tools that can be used by individuals to gather and process needed information to aid them in their office, school, work, and in day-to- day activities. ICT Overview
- 7. Computer - is an electronic device, operating under the control of instructions stored in its own memory that can accept data according to specific rules, produce results, and store the results for future use. Evolution of Technology
- 8. Automation - is defined as “the technique of making an apparatus, a process, or a system operate automatically”. Evolution of Technology
- 9. Short History of Computer First-generation Computer (1946-1959) - The first electronic computer was developed in 1946 by John Presper Eckert and John W. Mauchly. - The computer was named Electronic Numeric Integrator and Calculator. - It can do additions and subtraction of up to 10 digits and 167 sqms. in size.
- 11. Short History of Computer Second-generation Computer (1959-1965) - In this generation, transistors were used as the interior section of the computer. - Transistors were much smaller, faster, and more dependable than vacuum tubes.
- 13. Short History of Computer Third-generation Computer (1965-1971) - Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuits (IC) in 1965. - Integrated circuits (IC’s) replaced the transistors. - A single IC has many transistors, resistors, and capacitors can replace an entire circuit board of transistor.
- 15. Short History of Computer Fourth-generation Computer (1971-1980) - Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits were used which have about 5,000 transistors on a single chip known as the microprocessor. - The other application of the microprocessors were applied to pocket calculators, tv sets etc..
- 16. Short History of Computer Fifth-generation Computer (1980-onwards) - The VLSI technology has evolved into Ultra Large-scale Integration (ULSI) technology. - This generation involves computer intelligence such as artificial intelligence (AI) and computers that think like a human being.
- 17. Media - “In the digital age, media can be considered as the message, the medium, and the messenger”. Media in the Digital Age
- 18. - media is considered to be the message itself for those who create and own the rights of content: User-Generated Content (UGC) or Professionally-produced content (PPC). Media in the Digital Age
- 19. Blog - It is a combination of two words: web and log. Media in the Digital Age Blogger - The person who writes blogs.
- 20. - the medium used refers to the tool or tools used in sending a message from the source to the destination. Media in the Digital Age
- 21. - the messenger is the one who delivers the message. Media in the Digital Age
