Module Name: INTRODUCTION TO INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION
TECHNOLOGY

Answer:
What is Information Technology? Information technology (IT) is the use of computers to
store, retrieve, transmit, and manipulate data or information. IT is typically used within
the context of business operations as opposed to personal or entertainment
technologies. IT is considered to be a subset of information and communications
technology (ICT).
What is Information and Communication Technology? Information and communications
technology (ICT) is an extensional term for information technology (IT) that stresses the
role of unified communications and the integration of telecommunications (telephone
lines and wireless signals) and computers, as well as necessary enterprise software,
middleware, storage, and audiovisual systems, that enable users to access, store,
transmit, and manipulate information
What is a Computer System? A computer is a machine that can be instructed to carry
out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations automatically via computer
programming. Modern computers have the ability to follow generalized sets of
operations, called programs. These programs enable computers to perform an
extremely wide range of tasks.
Input Devices an input device is essentially a piece of hardware that sends data to a
computer. Most input devices either interact with or control the computer in some
way. The most common input devices are the mouse and the keyboard, but there are
many others
Output Devices What Is an Output Device? An output device is a piece of computer
hardware that receives data from a computer and then translates that data into
another form.
What is Digital Data Storage? Digital data storage is essentially the recording of digital
information in a storage medium, typically by electronic means. The storage device
usually enables a user to store large amounts of data in a relatively small physical space,
and makes sharing that information with others easy.

Answer:
Computer and Network Technology
What is a Network? A network consists of two or more computers that are linked in
order to share resources (such as printers and CDs), exchange files, or allow electronic
communications
Two very common types of networks include:  Local Area Network (LAN)  Wide Area
Network (WAN)
Wide Area Network Wide Area Networks (WANs) connect networks in larger geographic
areas, such as Florida, the United States, or the world. Dedicated transoceanic cabling
or satellite uplinks may be used to connect this type of global network.
Local Area Network a Local Area Network (LAN) is a network that is confined to a
relatively small area. It is generally limited to a geographic area such as a writing lab,
school, or building.
Wired and Wireless Connections A wireless network enables people to communicate
and access applications and information without wires. This provides freedom of
movement and the ability to extend applications to different parts of a building, city, or
nearly anywhere in the world.
Types of Wireless Networks WLANS: Wireless Local Area Networks WLANS allow users
in a local area, such as a university campus or library, to form a network or gain access
to the internet
WPANS: Wireless Personal Area Networks The two current technologies for wireless
personal area networks are Infra-Red (IR) and Bluetooth (IEEE 802.15).
WMANS: Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks This technology allows the connection
of multiple networks in a metropolitan area such as different buildings in a city, which
can be an alternative or backup to laying copper or fiber cabling.
buildings in a city, which can be an alternative or backup to laying copper or fiber
cabling. WWANS: Wireless Wide Area Networks These types of networks can be
maintained over large areas, such as cities or countries, via multiple satellite systems or
antenna sites looked after by an ISP.

Answer:
Internet and the World Wide Web
What is the Internet? The internet is the largest computer network in the world,
connecting millions of computers. A network is a group of two or more computer
systems linked together.
The World Wide Web (WWW) When most people think of the internet, the first thing
they think about is the World Wide Web. Nowadays, the terms "internet" and "World
Wide Web" are often used interchangeably— but they're actually not the same thing.
HTML The backbone of the World Wide Web is made of HTML files, which are specially-
formatted documents that can contain links, as well as images and other media.
URL to get to a web page, you can type the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) in a
browser. The URL, also known as the web address, tells the browser exactly where to
find the page.
Basic Terms and Concepts Let’s start with some basic terms and concepts: Internet: It
might be helpful to think of the Internet as a vast system of roads all connecting to each
other. You may have heard the term “information superhighway.

Answer;
Information, Control, and Privacy
What is freedom of Expression? Everyone has the right to communicate his or her
opinions and ideas and share information in whatever form. In human rights this is
called freedom of expression.
Democracy Freedom of expression is an important human right which is essential for a
society to be democratic. It enables the free exchange of ideas, opinions and
information and thus allows members of society to form their own opinions on issues of
public importance.
Scope Freedom of expression protects almost all the ways in which you can express
yourself, regardless of the content or tone of your message.
Restrictions The right to freedom of expression is very broad, but it has limits and can
be restricted. This is when the freedom of expression of one person violates the rights
of another person or the values of society as a whole
Internet privacy Internet privacy involves the right or mandate of personal privacy
concerning the storing, repurposing, provision to third parties, and displaying of
information pertaining to oneself via the Internet
Information Privacy - is an individual's claim to control the terms under which personal
information- identifiable to the individual--is acquired, disclosed, and used.
Computer crimes New technologies create new criminal opportunities but few new
types of crime. What distinguishes cybercrime from traditional criminal activity?
Obviously, one difference is the use of the digital computer, but technology alone is
insufficient for any distinction that might exist between different realms of criminal
activity.
Types of Cybercrime ranges across a spectrum of activities. At one end are crimes that
involve fundamental breaches of personal or corporate privacy, such as assaults on the
integrity of information held in digital depositories and the use of illegally obtained
digital information to blackmail a firm or individual.
Five Moral Dimensions of the Information Age The major ethical, social, and political
issues raised by information systems include the following moral dimensions:
1. Information rights and obligations. What information rights do individuals and
organizations possess with respect to information about themselves? What can they
protect? What obligations do individuals and organizations have concerning this
information? 2. Property rights and obligations. How will traditional intellectual
property rights be protected in a digital society in which tracing and accounting for
ownership are difficult and ignoring such property rights is so easy? 3. Accountability
and control. Who can and will be held accountable and liable for the harm done to
individual and collective information and property rights? 4. System quality. What
standards of data and system quality should we demand to protect individual rights and
the safety of society? 5. Quality of life. What values should be preserved in an
information-and knowledge based society? Which institutions should we protect from
violation? Which cultural values and practices are supported by the new information
technology?
BASIC CONCEPTS OF ETHICAL ANALYSIS 1. RESPONSIBILITY This means that you accept
the potential costs, duties and obligations for the decisions you make. 2.
ACCOUNTABILITY It means mechanisms are in place for identifying who took
responsible actions and who are the responsible parties. 3. LIABILITY is a feature of the
political systems in which a body of laws permits individuals and firms to recover
damages to them by other actors, systems or organizations. 4. DUE PROCESS This is a
related feature of law-governed societies and is a process in which laws are well known
and understood and there is an ability to higher authorities

Answer:
IT, Culture, and the Society, the Internet of Things
An industry automation takes a step further mechanization that uses a particular
machinery mechanism aided human operators for performing a task.
Industrial automation is the use of control systems, such as computers or robots, and
information technologies for handling different processes and machineries in an
industry to replace a human being.
In a brief, industrial automation can be defined as the use of set technologies and
automatic control devices that results the automatic operation and control of
industrial processes without significant human intervention and achieving superior
performance than manual control.
Why Industrial Automation? (Advantages of Automation System) To increase
productivity Automation of factory or manufacturing or process plant improves
production rate through a better control of production. It helps to produce mass
production by drastically reducing assembly time per product with a greater
production quality
To provide optimum cost of operation Integration of various processes in industry
with automated machineries, minimizes cycle times and effort and hence the need of
human labor gets reduced.
To improve product quality Since the automation reduces the human involvement,
the possibility of human errors also gets eliminated. Uniformity and product quality
with a greater conformity can be maintained with automation by adaptively
controlling and monitoring the industrial processes in all stages right from inception
of a product to an end product.
processes in all stages right from inception of a product to an end product. To reduce
routine checks Automation completely reduces the need for manual checking of
various process parameters. By taking advantage of automation technologies,
industrial processes automatically adjust process variables to set or desired values
using closed loop control techniques.
Netiquettes and code of conduct for IT professionals Netiquette is short for "Internet
etiquette." Just like etiquette is a code of polite behavior in society, netiquette is a
code of good behavior on the Internet. This includes several aspects of the Internet,
such as email, social media, online chat, web forums, website comments, multiplayer
gaming, and other types of online communication.
