Summary of Week 1
Lecture 1
Lecture: Introduction to IT
Information Technology is often associated with issues of data processing and information management through large scale information systems. However, for the last 10 years IT has not only refer to (1) computer-assisted information processing technologies, but also to (2) computer assisted communication technologies , and (3) computer assisted decision support technologies. It is therefore more appropriate to speak of Information and Communication Technologies. These advanced forms of IT enable the development of new forms of work and organizations, such as distributed teamwork, mobile work, telework, inter-organizational networking, and outsourcing activities to other countries. At the same time, traditional information systems are now being complemented or integrated with decision support systems, expert systems, and with sometimes called “ groupware”, i.e. technology supporting, for example, electronic mail, video-conferencing, mobile calling, and flexible command and control systems. The growth of this form of technological advancements is related to the fact that organizations & individuals have to cope with changes in the socio-economic environment. They need to become more conscious of the importance of their structures, technologies, intellectual capital. In this lecture we will discuss about the following topics:
What is IT & ICT?
Advantages of Digital Information.
IT & Communication Technology Tools
Emergence & Impect of Information Technology
Information Society and its implications
Organizational Environment & Market pressures
Benifits of ICT
Role of ICT Managers
Lecture Slides 1
Lecture 2: Introduction to Computers
