What is it
What is ICT?
ICT stands for 'Information Communication Technology'. Everyday usage of digital technology includes when you use a
computer, tablet or mobile phone, send email, browse the internet, make a video call - these are all examples of using basic ICT skills and
technology to communicate.
Information and communications technology (ICT) skills refer to one’s ability to converse with people through various
technologies. Similar to information technology (IT), ICT refers to technology use for regular, everyday tasks: sending an email, making a
video call, searching the internet, using a tablet or mobile phone, and more. Ironically, ICT skills could also include the ability to use older
communication technologies such as telephones, radios, and televisions. Typically, ICT experts are called upon to integrate old
communication technology with the new technology. Almost every job requires some ICT skills, and many require hybrid skills, a skill set
that is a mix of technical and non-technical skills.

What is literary adaptation?
Literary adaptation is the adapting of a literary source (e.g. a novel, short story, poem) to another genre or medium, such as a film,
stage play, or video game. It refers to the process of translating a creative work from one medium to another: a novel adapted into a film,
for example. Hamlet has been adapted into operas: Ambrose Thomas' 1868 version in French, and Franco Faccio's 1865 Amleto in Italian.
It can also involve adapting the same literary work in the same genre or medium just for different purposes, e.g. to work with a
smaller cast, in a smaller venue (or on the road), or for a different demographic group (such as adapting a story for children). Sometimes
the editing of these works without the approval of the author can lead to a court case.
It also appeals because it obviously works as a story; it has interesting characters, who say and do interesting things. This is
particularly important when adapting to a dramatic work, e.g. film, stage play, teleplay, as dramatic writing is some of the most difficult.
To get an original story to function well on all the necessary dimensions—concept, character, story, dialogue, and action—is an extremely
rare event performed by a rare talent.
Digital Storytelling- The process of crafting the digital story builds communication, creativity, visual and sound literacy, and
project management skills. Telling your stories with text, pictures, and your own narration is easy. Frames helps you engage your audience
with features like pan and zoom, the ability to match frame duration to sound recording, and more.

What I can do
ACTIVITY 1: ePost MO!
If you were to recreate the story, how would you do it? Tell your story using a comic strip. Create your own digital
comic strip based on the story below. A comic strip is a sequence of drawings in boxes that tells an amusing story, typically printed in a
newspaper or comic book. Try to explore the link above to create your own comic strip.

Blood
Carmen Boullosa

If it is the moon that governs the tides, what strange star controls the
blood of our two different bodies? It is a star that your eyes can not see, not even
mine, it lives hidden by the moon and the sun. His subject cruel plays with the
signs of its particles, without fear to get in danger of bursting, or change shape,
become once again minimal parts, asteroids into different orbits or dust,
scattered dust pilgrim. A star absurd. It is because of him that my blood tends
toward your. If they do not show any inclination towards me, then, it is that you’re
in the lead mine, that you are my moon. You the one that controls my tendency.
Through your veins do not burst circulates this dull sense, your blood limestone.
