Lesson

Expertise in your professional track will be significantly enhanced if you

know how to develop ICT content. Today in the digital age, most tasks
in the different fields or jobs involve the function of applications and
platforms through the internet. Having knowledge and skills in using
and utilizing platforms and applications into one's field of specialization
is a great advantage to those who do not.

But, what are platforms? How do these differ from applications? How
will these help you develop ICT content? What are the existing
platforms and applications that are available online that can help you
create ICT content for a specific purpose?

TOOLS AND ONLINE CREATION APPLICATIONS

Online creation tools and applications have a blurry distinction in the

definition. An application is usually understood to be a larger, more
complex piece of software, whereas a tool typically is designed for a
specific use case. This distinction is blurry, though, as some tools are
very versatile and powerful while some applications are comparatively
simple and with limited versatility.
But one thing is for sure, both online creation tools and applications
are computer programs that utilize web browsers and web technology
to perform tasks over the internet. They are like word processors or
paint applications on your computers, but this time, they are operating
on the internet.
There are lots of existing online tools and applications in the world
wide web, from online forms, shopping carts, word processors,
spreadsheets, video and photo editing, file conversion, file scanning,
and email programs such as Gmail, Yahoo, and AOL

EXISTING ONLINE CREATION TOOLS AND APPLICATIONS FOR

SPECIFIC PURPOSES
These online creation tools and applications currently include, but
are not limited to:

a. Audio: These tools and applications allow users to create, edit,

trim, remix, and publish kinds of music and sounds.
Examples:
1. Hobnox Audiotool
2. Twisted Wave Audio Editor
3. Audi Trimmer

b. Infographics: These tools and applications give users the

chance to create a creative and stunning infographic.
Examples:
1. Creately
2. Piktochart
3. Canva
c. Video: These tools and applications allow users to edit and
create videos online.
Examples:
1. Powtoon
2. WeVideo
 3. YouTube Video Editor

d. Presentations: These tools and applications let the users utilize

images ang infographics on their presentations to get into the
minds of their target audience.
Examples:
1. Prezi
2. Haiku Deck
3. Emaze

e. Memes: The Internet is full of colorful images and videos

because audiences love them and sharing them. Memes get
copied and spread rapidly. These applications and tools make
meme creation easier.
Examples:
1 Imgur.
2. Rage Comic Generator
3. QuickMeme

Online Offices: These applications and tools are word processors,

spreadsheets, slides, and survey forms that work in cyberspace.
Examples:
1. Google doc, sheets, slides
2. Google Forms
3. Microsoft Office 365
4. Microsoft Forms

Content Management System (CMS): CMS is an application that

allows the user to publish, edit, manipulate, organize, and delete web
content. Most webpage creation platforms are using CMS to develop ICT
content for a specific purpose.

ONLINE PLATFORMS

There are some online

applications and tools that are
integrated within one place. For
example, Facebook messenger
is a communication tool
provided by Facebook that
makes calling and texting
services possible for its users.
Aside from Facebook
messenger, there are also other
tools and applications in
Facebook that cater different needs and services of its audience, such as
photo organizing poll creation, video streaming and many more. All these
tools and applications have been systematically and strategically put into
one place, which is Facebook.

Facebook is an example of an online platform. Therefore, we can

say that online platforms combine all tools into one place and system for
efficient processes and faster accomplishment of different tasks. They are
different
from applications and tools in the sense that they only get one part of the
job.

For a more straightforward illustration, online platforms can be

compared to a car, and its primary purpose is to travel to a destination. In
comparison, the applications and tools can be viewed as the tires for
moving steering wheel for directing, and exhaust for emitting smoke from
combustions. These tools and applications are working together on one
platform to serve a purpose.

Online platforms can also be defined as digital services that enable

collaboration between two or more different but interdependent groups of
users who interact through the internet. Online platforms allow users to
develop ICT content to connect, communicate, and collaborate with other
users in the online world. For example, Facebook is one of the most
popular online platforms that is not only used for finding friends or relatives
but also has evolved as a place for marketing business. Many
business-minded people have taken the interactions happening in
Facebook advantage for the promotion of their products and services for
free.

EXISTING ONLINE PLATFORMS

Online platforms are categorized according to the services they
provide. Currently, the Categories of online platforms are listed below but
not limited to, the following:

a. Presentation/ Visualization: These are online platforms that let

you showcase and share presentations, infographics, and videos
with other people.
Examples:
1. Prezi
2. Zoho
3. Slide Shares

b. Cloud Computing: This type of platform allows you to upload,

download, organize, and store files on the online storage, which
is called cloud instead of using offline storage like a computer
desktop. Here, users can share and even collaborate files with
other users.
Examples:
1. Google Drive
2. Dropbox
3. OneDrive

c. Social Media: These are interactive online technologies that

enable the creation or sharing of information, ideas, career
interests, and other forms of expression through virtual
communities and networks.
Examples:
1. Facebook
2. Twitter
3. Instagram
 d. Mapping: This online platform provides detailed information
about geographical regions and sites around the world. It allows
the embedding of maps into proprietary sites.
Examples:
1. Google Maps
2. Bing Maps
3. Wikimapia

e. File Management: This online platform allows you to convert

and manage files like images, videos, documents, audio, and
more to other formats without downloading a software tool.
Examples:
1. Zamzar
2. Word2pdf
3. Cloud Convert

f. Web Page Creation: It is an online platform that lets you build a

web page that includes colors, texts, images, and often contains
links to media such as video and audio.
Examples:
1. WordPress
2. Wix
3. Weebly

NATURE AND PURPOSE OF ONLINE PLATFORMS AND APPLICATIONS

In the latter part of the 20

century, creating an online platform
like a webpage or a website had
required a skillful mind regarding
computer programming. Only those
who possessed superior
knowledge on computer codes
were the ones who could create a
web page or web site, and yet their
creations were not that exciting and
convincing compared to what we
have today.

At present, it is very much

convenient to create textual and visual parts in creating ICT contents. Even a high
school learner with necessary skills, even without superior knowledge on
computer programming, can develop and construct creative ICT contents that are
fun and interactive to users. Moreover, web pages or websites have evolved into
tools and platforms useful for discovery, communication, creation, and
co-creation.

Another good point for online applications and platforms is their

convenience. Since they are online, they are available to the users anytime and
anywhere as long as they are connected to the internet

They are less hassle and easy to use compared to desktop applications
since they do not require installation on computers since they are web-based.
They consume almost no storage in your computer since most of your creation
will be saved on clouds.
WHICH ONLINE PLATFORMS AND APPLICATIONS WILL YOU CHOOSE?
Always remember that there is no existing superior online platforms and
applications. Its productivity and efficiency are dependent on the purpose as well
as the knowledge and skills of the users. To help you decide which online
platforms and applications are suited for you, you should consider the following:

a. Address Specific Purpose: In choosing online platforms and

applications, make sure that they have features that are fitted to
your needs. They should help you create content that you
wanted to develop.

b. Easy to Use: Good platforms and applications must have a

friendly interface. It means that you can easily understand,
manipulate and use its different features.

c. Collaborative Features: As much as possible, choose platforms

and applications that promote collaboration. Aside from the fact
that collaboration makes tasks easier and faster to accomplish,
better content will be developed if it is thought and worked on by
more than one brain.

d. Browser Support: You need to ensure that a variety of browsers

supports your chosen online platforms and applications.

e. Content Security: Any platforms or applications must guarantee

the security of users' data-for instance, features of content
privacy or the ability to delete content.

Lesson
What does Web Page mean?

A Web page is a document for the World Wide Web that can be
accessed and displayed on a monitor or smartphone using any web
browser. Web pages are made up of Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)
and can be created and modified by using basic application like Notepad
and professional HTML editors.

HTML is Easy to Learn and Use

HTML is easy to learn and understand. For someone who wants to

learn web development, HTML is the first and foremost computer language
that you need to take note but do not worry, it is not a sensitive case and
as simple as it is. It already has some tags that serve a specific purpose to
make. One can easily understand others' code and make changes in it
when required without reading a whole book of a manual. Moreover, it
does not throw any error or create any problem like other programming
languages
do when the developer forgets to close the tags or makes mistakes in
coding.

HTML is Free

One of the biggest advantages of HTML is that it is free of all cost

 and there is no need to purchase specific software for it to be used. Online
Website Builder - Easy Use of Drag-And-Drop Interface For those who
love to make changes to their website, a drag-and-drop interface is
convenient.

WYSIWYG

WYSIWYG is the acronym for What You See Is What You Get. This
means that whatever you will type, insert, draw, place, rearrange, or
whatever you do on a web page is what the audience will see. Just like
using the Microsoft Word, WYSIWYG shows and prints whatever you will
type on the screen.

HTML

• HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language

• HTML describes the structure of a web page
• HTML consists of a series of elements
• HTML elements tell the browser how to display the content •
HTML elements are represented by TAGS
• HTML TAGS label pieces of content such as "heading",
"paragraph", "table" and so on...
• Browsers do not display the HTML tags, but use them to
render the content of the page

Requirements in creating a web page using the html

1. Editor - using the Notepad (source

Untitled - Notepad code) in text and extension name - .html or .htm.

2. Browser-responsible for reading HTML instruction and displaying

the web page output. (Ex. Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox,
Google Chrome)

Creating a Website Using Notepad

Web pages can be created and modified using professional HTML editors.
However, in learning HTML, it is better to use a simple text editor like Notepad.

Follow the steps below to create your first web page with Notepad.

Step 1: Open Notepad

For Windows 8 or above computers:
a. Open the Start Screen (the window symbol at the bottom left on
your screen).
b. Search and open the Notepad

Step 2: Write the following HTML:

HTML document is divided into two main sections the head and the body.
Each section contains specific information. The head section contains information
about the documents like title, search engine or keywords but is not visible to the
reader. The body section contains the information or content that you want to
appear on the web page.

Step 3: Save the HTML Page

Save the file on your computer. Select File > Save as in the Notepad
menu.

Name the file: MyFirstWebsite.html

Step 4: View the HTML Page in Your Browser
Open the saved HTML file in your browser (double click on the file, or right-click -
and choose "Open with").

Creating a Website Using an Online Website Builder

Wix.com is a WYSIWYG cloud-based web development platform that was

first developed and popularized by the Israeli company also called Wix. It allows
users to create websites and mobile sites through the use of online drag-and-drop
tools.

What kind of website do you want to create? Can be your passion or

hobby, business, photography, etc.
1. Create an account on Wix through their website www.wix.com
and click GET STARTED.

2. Select "Create a New Site" from the drop down menu in the top
right corner of the dashboard. Once it's clicked, Wix will ask what
type of website you want to create. There are options for
everyone, from online stores to personal portfolios.

3. Customize your website with the Wix Editor. Once you select a
template, you can be able to customize it in the Wix Editor using
simple drag-and-drop editing.

4. Update the Texts and Images At this point, you can get to see a
preview page of your chosen template. This is where you can
play around with simple but brilliant editing features, like the
dragand drop design and text boxes.

5. Personalize the Background

If small images are still not enough, you can also change your
template background. The left-hand sidebar features a
'Background' button, which you can use to click and change with
ease.

6. Add Pages

Once you created a stunning homepage, there are few other

more pages you can add to ensure that your website has
everything visitors are looking for. For example, make sure to
include a "Home", "About" and a "Contact Us” page.

7. Publish your Wix website.

To make your website publicly accessible, you need to publish it. To do so,
click "Publish” from the top menu. However, before Wix will publish your
site, the last step in the process is to create your own subdomain or
connect a custom domain. For a serious website, you should connect your
own custom domain name, rather than using a Wix subdomain.

Activity
Activity 2: Adding Content to Your Website
It is now the time to add the content to your website. Here are some
site pages and elements that you should add:

1. Home Page Content - entice your visitors with contents like

photos of your hobby or interest plus text content.

2. About Me/Contact - add a page containing a form element which

allows visitors to email you. You may also add links to your
social media accounts.

3. Photo Gallery - a page that contains photos from your social

media.

4. Community - a page that contains links to ten of your classmates'

websites including a short description.

Lesson
A. Team Structure and Dynamics for ICT Content

When creating interesting ICT content to be published, it is

not enough to have the skills and knowledge about it, for it would
be difficult to maintain and monitor it alone. It is also not enough
that
your group works independently because it might lead to inefficiency
due to miscommunication. What you need is to create a "Team
Structure."

Team Structure

Team Structure refers to the creation of an individual team or

the creation of a multi-system. It is an essential component of the
teamwork process.
A well-structured team is an enabler for and the result of
effective communication, leadership, situation monitoring, and
support.
An effective team structure works collaboratively. It is the key
to the success of the ICT project. Collaboration means individuals
work together to produce/ create a well-defined content to achieve a
common business purpose.
In creating ICT content, most teams work collaboratively
online. Online collaboration is a work process where people are
interacting in real-time over the internet. It provides a smooth
process in the development of ICT content even without working
together physically,
A team must consider these Four (4) Parts of Collaboration in
a Flow Process while interacting with team members:
 Sharing: documenting explicit knowledge
Understanding: adopting the process knowledge
Reflection: analyzing or interpreting shared information
Expression: the process of making known ones thought or
feelings

Team Members
An effective team structure is composed of efficient team
members who have specific roles and responsibilities. These team
members include:

• Project Manager: An individual who has general

accountability for the successful initiation, planning, design,
execution, monitoring, controlling, and closure of a project.

• Data Analyst: Someone who gathers, processes, and

performs statistical analyses of Data. A person who is
accountable in collecting the data for ICT content.

• Content Writer and Editor: A person responsible for

reviewing the data and finalizes a complete of information.

• The Web Designer - A person responsible for creating the

appearance, layout, and elements of a website. The job
involves understanding both graphic design and computer
programming.

• The Web Developer - The person technically develops the

overall functionalities of a web page.
Facebook page has similar team members except for web
designers and
web
developers
because
Facebook
already
provides it.
Instead, the
FB page
includes other
roles like
Moderator,
Advertiser,
and Jobs
Manager. To

B. Online Collaborative Tools and Processes There

are plenty of tools and platforms that are available online, making
online collaboration possible and convenient.

Online Collaborative Tools for Creation and Co

creation of ICT Contents
 Online collaborative tools for ICT content development that
may be used currently include the following:
✓ Facebook Groups
✓ Microsoft's Yammer
✓ G Suite
✓ MS Office 365
✓ Google Chat/ Hangouts
✓ Prezi
✓ Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides
✓ Trello
✓ Google Drive
✓ Zoom
✓ Microsoft Teams
✓ Skype/ Viber/ Kakao Talk/ WeChat/ Line

Using Google Drive for Collaboration

In creating and co-creating ICT content, storage, and
organization of files is necessary. It will be safe and convenient if
the content will be stored on clouds and available for the members
to edit and organize anytime, anywhere. However, each member
should be responsible in keeping the files.
Google Drive provides a service for file storage on clouds and
collaboration for online sharing, editing, and organizing through
"Shared Folders."

A. Steps in Creating Folder/s in Google Drive

1. Make sure that each member has a Google

account. 2. Sign-in to your Google Drive account.

3. Create a folder by clicking "New." Then a pop-up window will

appear then, click "Folder."
 4. Another pop-up window will appear. Type a Name for the new
folder then, click “CREATE.” A folder will be created.

5. You can create as many folders as necessary for the project

by repeating step 3 to 4.

B. Steps in Sharing Folder in Google Drive

1. To share the folder with the team members, right-click the folder
to be shared and a pop-up window will appear, then, click "Get
shareable link."

2. A pop-up window will appear. You have two options on how you
will share a folder. It can be "Restricted” or “Anyone with the
link.” Click the drop-down list button below the text input box of
“Get link" and a popup window will appear. Then, click your
chosen mode of folder sharing.
2.1. If you choose "Restricted” Mode.
2.1A. Choosing “Restricted” in sharing a folder means that
the folder will only be accessible to the people that has
been added by the creator. Anyone who has the link but
has not been added by the creator, he or she will not be
able to access it without the creator's permission. This
mode of sharing is more secure because of the
restriction. Once you click the "Restricted," click the
"Share with people and groups" located at the upper box
then, encode the e-mails of your team members. You can
also include message for further instructions or
reminders. Make sure that the recipients have been
assigned as editor.

2.1 B.Click "Send.” An email is sent to people you shared

with.
 2.2 If you choose the "Anyone with the link” mode

2.2.A. If you choose "Anyone with the link” it means

that you can give other people a link to your folder so
that you don't have to add e-mail addresses when you
share folder. This mode of sharing is more convenient
if you have a large of number of team members. Once
you click the "Anyone with the link," click the
drop-down list button located at the right side and a
pop-up window will appear. Click "Editor" so that the
receiver of the link
will be able to organize, add or edit files to the shared
folder.

2.2 B. Click "Copy link" and paste the link in an email

or any place you want to share it like private message,
chat group, or group page.

3. Once the team members received the link, they may now
access the folder by clicking it. They can now upload,
organize, and edit file on the shared folder.

Online Platforms for Hosting ICT Content

After creating and finalizing your content, it is now ready to be

published online. Platforms that may be currently used to host
newsletters and similar ICT content include the following:

• Presentation/ visualization (Prezi, Soho, Slideshare,

Mindmeister)
• Cloud computing (Google Apps)
• Social Media (Facebook Pages, Tumblr)
• Web Page Creation (Wix, Weebly)
 • Blog sites (Blogger, Wordpress, Livejournal, Issuu)

Characteristics of Good Collaborative Tools and

Platforms

Always remember that there are no superior tools. The

productivity of a tool is dependent on the intended purpose of the
team. Hence, in choosing an appropriate tool, the team must
consider the following:

• The tool must be user friendly.

• The tool has elements that are appropriate for the team's goal.
• The tool prioritizes security and privacy.

C. Project Management for ICT Content

The application of knowledge, skills, tools, and

techniques to project activities is called Project Management.
It is needed to achieve project requirements, usually to time
and budget.
It includes overseeing projects for software
development, hardware installations, network upgrades,
cloud computing and virtualization rollouts, business
analytics, and data management projects and implementing
IT services,
Project Management is done by applying and
integrating project management processes which are
organized in five distinct phases:

• Initiating - An overview of the objectives of the project, needs, and

the problem is identified. It is where you create the project charter
with the Project Manager assigned to the project.
• Planning - This is where a successful project conclusion is worked
out by the project manager and the project team. The team
brainstorms the ICT theme to be published, together with the
collaborative tools and online platforms to be used.
• Executing - This is where the project team goes about executing the
project plan once the project plan has been constructed. The
curation of ICT content may occur in this phase for quality
assurance. Content writers and editors are essential in this phase.
After all the preparation has been done, publishing the ICT content
online may now take place.
• Monitoring and Controlling - This is where the project manager
monitors and controls the work for a time, cost, scope, quality, risk,
and other factors while the project is being executed. It is also an
ongoing process that ensures that the project meets its focus for
each project objective. Other members, primarily the web developer,
may work in this phase collaboratively with the project manager.
• Closing- This happens when each phase is ended and when each
entire project is concluded. It happens to ensure that all the work
has been finished, completed, and approved.

D. Curating Existing Content for Use on the Web

Content curation is the process of publicly gathering,

organizing, adding value, and openly sharing digital information
artifacts on a specific topic or area of audience interest.
It intends to add your personal touch, as the creator, to a
handpicked collection of content. They are gathered from a variety
of sources, in a specific topic, that you publish and share with your
audience wherever they may be.

Creating and Choosing Valuable ICT Content

The success of an online portal, page, or website is

dependent upon its content. The content must be exciting and
worthy of the time of the specific audience. Thus, in developing ICT
content, the team must consider the following steps in creating and
choosing valuable ICT content.

1. Define your objectives: specify the main goal that needs to be

promoted in your content.
2. Research and analyze: extract information from different
resources regarding the topic you want to write.
3. Organize the structure of your article: give an overview of your
topic to help readers understand what your topic is.
4. Summarize and proofread: create a summary of the
information you have gathered and analyzed to make sure
your article is free of graphical errors.

Three (3) Rules in Creating Quality Content

• Informative - it should provide valuable and useful information to

the reader.
• Interesting - it should catch the readers' attention from the title to
the last part of your content.
• Relevant - it should reflect how much you know the subject of
your content enough and who it is being written to make it
relevant to both.

(PAWS) is one of the popular advocacy group here in the
Philippines? Have you wondered how did they come up with the
idea of creating the organization? How did that organization reach
the different parts of the Philippines? Using Information and
Communications Technology (ICT) as a medium of communication
and even having their own official website makes it easier for them
to spread their goal to prevent animal cruelty through education. In
this module you will learn how to develop a working ICT Project for

Activity

Activity 7.1: Creating a Concept Paper

Guide Questions
1. Identify a cause or issue for social change
2. Decide if Information and Communication Technology (ICT) can
 offer a solution to the cause or social issue that you have
identified
3. Do you think that the problem you have selected is relevant to
your strand?
4. Does the project that you selected have an impact that can
contribute to the community?
5. As a student, can you handle the cause or social issue that you
have selected?
After identifying & evaluating a cause or issue for social
change, you need to create your own concept paper. A concept
paper plays a valuable role in the early stages of creating or
conceptualizing ideas for your project. According to a
presentation made by Mark Jhon Oxillo (2018). A concept paper
has 5 basic parts, namely:

a. Introduction – this includes a brief introduction of your ICT

Project for Social Change
b. Purpose – part of the concept paper where you can find the
reason why this project is worth investing for.
c. Description – this includes the important information about
your project.
d. Support – this includes the budget for the ICT project. It
involves the things that you need like internet connection,
social media account. Anything that you are going to use to
produce your ICT project should be found here.
e. Contact Information – this includes information about the
group, and how can they be contacted. (e.g. emails, contact
number)

Below is an example of a concept paper

Project Name Drive ko BEH (Basic Etiquette on Highways)

Introduction Nowadays owning a vehicle is very accessible, because of

this people tend to own a vehicle. Most of them bought it for convenience,
others are for show but the question is that do these people have the
etiquette & knowledge about how they take their vehicles on the road?

Purpose This project aims to provide a solution to create a way where

people will be educated on the proper driving etiquette & safety tips
