Document Summary
In this class, we will explore digital representations of information and communication technologies (as opposed to hard copy books or newspapers, for example) Generally, the umbrella term information and communication technologies (icts) is used to describe any technology or technological system which is used to gather, retrieve, transmit, convey, manipulate, store, process or analyze information by electronic methods. Distinguish between old (past) and new (present) When we talk about icts - we"re talking about digital technologies - they allow us to do a number of things across a wide variety of platforms. These devices use binary code to store and communicate data digital data is also a format that makes it easy to capture, analyze, manipulate and transform information. Generally, the major benefit of icts includes the ability to access information and communication over various platforms overcome physical boundaries of time and space. This allows for a great deal of interconnectivity amongst different technologies that share the same architecture .
