EDUCATION
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) can impact student
learning when teachers are digitally literate and understand how to integrate
it into curriculum.

Schools use a diverse set of ICT tools to communicate, create, disseminate,


store, and manage information.

In some contexts, ICT has also become integral to the teaching learning
interaction, through such approaches as replacing chalkboards with
interactive digital whiteboards, using students’ own smartphones or other
devices for learning during class time, and the “flipped classroom” model
where students watch lectures at home on the computer and use classroom
time for more interactive exercises.
EDUCATION
When teachers are digitally literate and trained
to use ICT, these approaches can lead to higher
order thinking skills, provide creative and
individualized options for students to express
their understandings, and leave students better
prepared to deal with ongoing technological
change in society and the workplace.
JOB OPPORTUNITIES
In the employment sector, ICT enables organizations to
operate more efficiently, so employing staff with ICT skills
is vital to the smooth running of any business. Being able
to use ICT systems effectively allows employees more time
to concentrate on areas of their job role that require soft
skills.
JOB OPPORTUNITIES
Nowadays, finding a job is different, you
can just use your smart phone, laptop,
desktop or any gadgets that is available
in the comfort of your home.
COMMUNICATION
We all know that ICT take a major role
for us by means of communicating, way
back in the past our parents use to
make letter and send it via post mail.
But now with the help of ICT it is
easier to communicate with our love
ones. We can use cellular phones that
design for communicating with other
people even they are miles away far
from you.
COMMUNICATION
ICT allows students to monitor and manage their
own learning, think critically and creatively, solve
simulated real-world problems, work
collaboratively, engage in ethical decision-making,
and adopt a global perspective towards issues and
ideas.

It also provides students from remote areas access


to expert teachers and learning resources, and
gives administrators and policy makers the data
and expertise they need to work more efficiently.
SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT
ICT in Sports plays a pivotal role in advancing all
domains in sports. Ever-evolving sports engineering
has been helping all kinds of sports to overcome the
limitations of human performance.

ICT has been the source for entertainment and


leisure and it is being used in these situations such
as; communicating, games, media streaming and
home leisure.
ADVERTISING, TRADE, AND INDUSTRY
ICT helps the companies in identifying the
opportunities and implementing marketing
communications via multiple media.

Reaching a larger audience, raising brand


awareness, generating leads, expanding
consumer engagement, and improving marketing
effectiveness are all advantages of employing ICT
in digital marketing.
HEALTH CARE & MEDICINE
ICT has transformed healthcare in many
developing countries by competently
distributing public health information and
enabling consultation in health issues.

Hospitals and physician offices large and


small have implemented new technologies
to respond to a changing regulatory
environment and to improve the overall
quality of care for patients.
SCIENCE & ENGINEERING
We all know that ICT take a major role in Science and Engineering
field. The ability to access information, gather, analyze, and depict
data, model and comprehend concepts and linkages, and
communicate scientific concepts, methods, and information are
just a few of the ways they use ICT.

In engineering, powerful computers are used to solve challenging


mathematical problems, model, simulate, and design sophisticated
multi-physics systems, control intricate machinery and
interconnected embedded systems, and collect, store, and analyze
large amounts of experimental data. This is the main application of
ICT tools in general, and computers in particular, have long been in
the first category.
GOVERNMENT & POLITICS
ICTs (information and communication technology) are
influencing how we live our daily lives. Both in their roles
as customers and employees. However, it is rather recent
in date. ICT also have a significant impact on politics,
which is characterized by through group decision-making.

ICT is a vast and an expanding idea places its main


emphasis on our government, on how to store, retrieve,
transfer, and manipulate any particular data and process
in our egovernance. We may state that ICT is associated
with the notion of utilizing current devices that allow the
world to become digital.
CULTURE & ARTS
ICT play an increasingly significant part in
supporting the promotion of arts and
cultural heritage educational activities, as
well as programs and actions in museum
learning environments, whose goal is to
draw visitors and serve them while also
meeting their needs.
HOME
In addition to communication, or reaching out to
individuals near and distant, it has also improved
and made our work at home more easier.

Information and communication technology (ICT)


use in homes is the usage of it in schools and
universities is expanding more quickly, and there
are now there are more systems in homes than in
classrooms.
