1 Introduction To Information and Communication Technology

ICT deals with communication technologies like mobile phones and the internet. Web 1.0 consisted of static websites while Web 2.0 allows for dynamic content and user interaction through features like social media, user-generated content, and software as a service. Web 3.0 aims to have machines understand user preferences to deliver personalized content but faces challenges around compatibility, security, vastness, and logic. Key trends in ICT include technological convergence around social media and mobile technologies as well as assistive media for those with impairments.

INFORMATION Information and Communication
AND Technology (ICT) deals with the use of
COMMUNICATI different communication technologies such
ON as mobile phones, telephone, Internet, etc. to
TECHNOLOGIES
locate, save, send and edit information.
•When the World Wide Web
was invented, most web pages
were static. Static (also known
as flat page or stationary page)
WEB 1.0: in the sense that the page is “as
is” and cannot be manipulated
by the user. The content is also
the same for all users. This is
referred to as Web 1.0.
• Web 2.0 is the evolution of
Web 1.0 by adding dynamic
web pages—the user is able
WEB 2.0:
to see a website differently
DYNAMI
than others. Examples of Web
C WEB
2.0 include social networking
PAGES
sites, blogs, wikis, video
sharing sites, hosted services,
and web applications.
Web 2.0 allows users to interact with the page:
instead of just reading a page, the user may be able
to comment or create a user account. Web 2.0 also
allows users to use web browsers instead of just
using their operating system. Browsers can now be
used for their user interface, application software (or
web applications), and even for file storage.
MOST WEBSITES
THAT WE VISIT
TODAY ARE WEB
2.0.
FEATURES OF WEB 2.0

Folksonomy. It allows users to categorize and


classify/arrange information using freely chosen keywords
(e.g., tagging). Popular social networking sites such as
Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc. use tags that start with the
pound sign (#). This is also referred to as hashtag.

Rich User Experience. Content is dynamic and is responsive


to user’s input. An example would be a website that shows
local content. In the case of social networking sites, when
logged on, your account is used to modify what you see in
their website.
FEATURES OF WEB 2.0

Long Tail. Services are offered on demand rather than on a one-time


purchase. In certain cases, time-based pricing is better than file-size-
based pricing or vice versa. This is synonymous to subscribing to a data
plan that charges you for the amount of time you spent in the Internet, or
a data plan that charges you for the amount of bandwidth you used.

User Participation. The owner of the website is not the only one who is
able to put content. Others are able to place a content of their own by
means of comment, reviews, and evaluation. Some websites allow
readers to comment on an article, participate in a poll, or review a
specific product (e.g., Amazon.com, online stores).
FEATURES OF WEB 2.0

Software as a Service. Users will subscribe to a software only when needed rather
than purchasing them. This is a cheaper option if you do not always need to use a
software. For instance, Google Docs is a free web-based application that allows the
user to create and edit word processing and spreadsheet documents online. When you
need a software, like a Word Processor, you can purchase it for a one-time huge
amount and install it in your computer and it is yours forever. Software as a service
allows you to “rent” a software for a minimal fee.

Mass Participation. It is a diverse information sharing through universal web access.


Since most users can use the Internet, Web 2.0’s content is based on people from
various cultures.
WEB 3.0 AND THE
SEMANTIC WEB

•The Semantic Web is


a movement led by
the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C).
The W3C standard encourages web
developers to include semantic
content in their web pages.
• According to the W3C, “The Semantic Web provides a
common framework that allows data to be shared and reused
across application, enterprise, and community boundaries.”

• The aim of Web 3.0 is to have machines (or servers)


understand the user’s preferences to be able to deliver web
content specifically targeting the user.
1. Compatibility
HTML files and current web browsers could not
support Web 3.0.
2. Security
The user’s security is also in question since the
SEVERA machine is saving his or her preferences.

L 3. Vastness
The World Wide Web already contains billions
PROBLE of web pages.

MS OF 4. Vagueness

WEB 3.0 Certain words are imprecise. The words “old”


and “small” would depend on the user.
5. Logic
Since machines use logic, there are certain
limitations for a computer to be able to predict
what the user is referring to at a given time.
1. Convergence
•Technological convergence is the
synergy of technological
advancements to work on a similar
goal or task.
TRENDS
2. Social Media
IN ICT
•Social media is a website,
application, or online channels that
enable web users to create, co-
create, discuss, modify, and
exchange user-generated content.
SIX TYPES OF SOCIAL MEDIA:
• Social Networks. These are sites that allow you to connect with other
people with the same interests or background.
• Bookmarking Sites. These are sites that allow you to store and manage
links to various websites and resources.
• Social News. These are sites that allow users to post their own news items
or links to other news sources.
• Media Sharing. These are sites that allow you to upload and share media
content like images, music, and video.
• Microblogging. These are sites that focus on short updates from the user.
• Blogs and Forums. These websites allow users to post their content.
3. Mobile Technologies
The popularity of smartphones and tablets has taken a major
rise over the years. This is largely because of the devices’
capability to do tasks that were originally found in personal
computers.

KINDS OF OPERATING SYSTEMS:

a. iOS
b. Android
c. Blackberry OS
d. Windows Phone OS
e. Symbian
f. WebOS
g. Windows Mobile
4. Assistive Media
Assistive media is a
nonprofit service designed
to help people who have
visual and reading
impairments. A database
of audio recordings is
used to read to the user.
