Information and communications technology (ICT) refers to all the technology used to handle telecommunications, broadcast media, intelligent building management systems, audiovisual processing and transmission systems, and network-based control and monitoring functions.
The question is how ICT change the world?
Community
I.c.t has changed the community, because people are having there houses broken into for there gadgets like laptops and phones. And people are getting fat by not going out. , more and more people are losing jobs getting replaced by robots with automated services.
Economic
This is changing society by having self service tills and making business more efficient which means them paying less money by no having to buy paper all the time and this means it is also causing jobs because of the intentions having to come in and fix them if they go wrong.
Legal
This has impacted society by people selling dodgy goods on eBay ,buying and selling cars that could be stolen and your identity might be stolen .
Digital divide
The digital divide is to have access to technology but not everyone can afford it this is also helping people bridge the gap and in the northern hemisphere we are privileged so we are slightly advanced this is also improving peoples lives but there is also a problem the people who have mobile phones are getting younger this means there is more problems with theft and in Somali they have food to sell but they can’t sell them because there is no web service.
Real life example
My real life example is in enemy of the when they break into will smiths house and place trackers in his cloths ,watch ,phone and when he tries running from the law but will smith doesn’t realize that he had trackers planted on him and they made him have bad credit and made his family turn against him.
MY LEARNING ABOUT INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY
I learned that information and communications technology has a good and negative impact in one's life and also in the society as a whole.
Sample

- As a citizen in a particular society you have the knowledge on how to improve your skills.
