Lesson 1 History and Development of Information Technology Learning Outcomes:. Define and explain fundamental information technology Concepts. Explore emerging technologies and trends. Gain knowledge about the history and development of the field of information technology. Let\'s ponder Can you live without a gadget? How would you feel if you forgot your smartphone? What about internet connections like Wi-Fi or mobile data? Facebook, TikTok, and all the othersâ€"when did this all start? Let\'s try to find out when information technology began. Topics Introduction  Millennials and The Rise of Information Society History of Computer \* Adapting to New Technology © Overview of New Technological Development Discussion: IT or Information technology is everything and anything that is digital, not the classic paper and penâ€" letters, that holds information â€" data of anything and by any form as long as the informationis stored electronically or digitally. All of us used itin some way but not all of us know what it means to have it and how important those are. You see, take a look at the difference between our generation from our past generations! Your uncle, aunts, grandparents, your mother and father they always say that you need for at least a month for a reply from the person they are sendingaletter to even if it is only in the neighboring province, but now, even those who are from foreign countries you can “chatâ€? with each other almost instantly and even you do know that he/she is going to send you something because you are notified bythe action. Those three dots (++) are as powerful as a sentence and somewhat exciting to wait. Those pictures and videos are transferred, sent, copied and kept everyday from anywhere to anywhere. These are just a small amount of the actual changes happening as we go along in our daily lives. All in all information technology consists of anything that uses a systematic and scientific process and devices materials through thorough research and experiment to result a desirable outcome that meets the standards and requirements in handling digital information may it be transferred, stored, copied, broadcast, developed or etc. Information technology starts as early as the 1970s but can be traced back during world war Il with the alliance of multiple industries and the armed forces for the war efforts to develop electronics â€" computers and theories such as information theory. From 1940 to 1950 the major contributors of the research and development of information technologies are the military, during this time there are four generations of computers made. Namely, the first one is made from vacuum tubes, the second generation is made with transistors and with the advancement of chipset the third generation is made. The fourth generation is much smaller using a single computer chip to provide processing power. Furthermore in the advancement of information theory and material technologies a fifth generation is made possible in the experimental stage.

Millennials and The Rise of Information Society Who are the millennials â€" Timeline of generations in the Western rai tn world according to the Pew Research ee Center \- retirement age and life expectancy are approximate. \ & Americans based on the\|\|media is over one-fifth za 2018 survey. Government and Government Officials. In the onset of the pandemic, the government relied on social media in disseminating information through various government agencies like DepEd, DOH, DILG and Local Government Units for rapid response. Though not all sources are reliable, the official government social media pages have a level of credibility. Government, private sector, politicians, and international and local celebrities make use of social media to engage with constituents, customers, voters, and avid fans. Individuals The use of social media is for family, friends and extended family that use various applications to look and search for opportunities on their career, search people world-wide with their interest, likes and share thoughts, feelings, insight, and engage in the activities of virtual social networks. The role of social media is crucial tool that used some companies as platform to find and engage with customers, consumer trends, offering good customer services or support and even drives sales through advertising, marketing and promoting their products. Significant Role of Social Media CO Helping the business to facilitate communication with customers. O Ability to collect information from the customer to focus on the marketing efforts and research. C Enabling the merge of social interactions on e-commerce sites. C Helps in promoting products and services according to targeted distribution. C Exclusive sales and coupons to would-be customers. C3 Timely that helps to build customer relationships through loyalty programs linked to social media THINGS TO REMEMBER There are positive and negative sides of social media that may use in any point of platform features, equating its overuse that leads to an addiction and contributes to absentmindedness, stress, and jealousy. In the research of the National Center for Biotechnology, social media information links to depression and may contribute to misleading information and falsehoods. D.

Google wanted to be the “perfect search engineâ€? which means that (Google search internet, not just Google, is making us stupid. The company Google stated that their mission is “to organize the world’s information engine) will understand what you want and will give you exactly what you require. They wanted it to be an artificial intelligence wherein they could solve never before solved problems. It can be those ironic things wherein you benefit and yet you don\'t. With the help of technology, every days’ duties have become easier. The internet has made us lazy.
