Study Notes
Lesson Motivation
- Students are instructed to form groups of five and answer questions honestly.
- Questions include: How many times did they check their phone that morning? How many status updates did they post on social media? Did they use the internet for an hour after waking up? Did they follow any celebrities on social media?
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
- ICT involves using various communication tools, like mobile phones, telephones, and the internet, to locate, save, send, and edit information.
ICT in the Philippines
- The Philippines is often called the "ICT Hub of Asia" due to significant growth in ICT-related jobs, including call centers (BPOs).
Web 2.0: Dynamic Web Pages
- The internet is a crucial tool in modern life.
- Understanding and maximizing its potential is important.
Features of Web 2.0
- Folksonomy: Users categorize and classify information using freely chosen keywords (e.g., tagging) on websites like Twitter.
- Rich User Experience: Website content is dynamic and adapts to user input. Social media sites adapt content displayed to a user based on their account.
Web 3.0 and the Semantic Web
- The Semantic Web (a project by the World Wide Web Consortium W3C) emphasizes including semantic content on web pages for better data sharing and reuse across applications, businesses, and communities
- Example: Searching for the best restaurants in a specific location, Web 3.0 may use prior visits and ratings in order to provide user results tailored to their specific preferences.
Web 3.0 Challenges
- Compatibility: Current web browsers may not support Web 3.0 HTML files.
- Security: User security concerns arise when their preferences are stored.
- Vastness: The sheer volume of existing web pages makes it difficult to manage.
- Vagueness: Ambiguous terminology can pose challenges.
- Predictive Logic: Computers may have limitations in understanding complex user intent.
Trends in ICT
- The ICT industry is constantly evolving and introducing innovative solutions to cater to user needs.
Convergence
- Technology convergence is where different technologies work together to achieve a similar goal.
- Example: using a smartphone to create documents instead of a computer
Social Media
- Social media is a platform for users to create, share, and exchange content online and communicate with one another.
- Social media is popular among users and has greater user engagement than other websites.
Types of Social Media
- Social Networks: Connect people with shared interests.
- Bookmarking Sites: Store and manage links to websites and resources.
- Social News: Allow users to share and comment on news items.
- Media Sharing: Enable users to share images and videos.
