                 In the past few years, Information Technology (IT) has completely changed the way we live. The Internet has become
                 a convenient way to access the information. It has affected our teaching and learning processes. Strong connectivity
                 features has increased the usage of smartphones. The whole world has shrunk into this little device only through the
                 use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Let us now study in detail the role of ICT in our life and how
                 we can enhance our ICT skills.


                        ICT


                 Information Technology is the use of hardware, software, and networking technology for accessing, storing, retrieving
                 and transmitting the information.

                 Communication Technology is defined as the exchange of information through networks using either wired or wireless
                 media.
                 So, if we combine these two important technologies in this digital world, then, it forms a new term called Information
                 and Communication Technology which can be defined as the use of hardware, software, and networking to transmit,
                 store, access and retrieve the information in the form of text, graphics, audio, video, and multimedia in a digital
                 platform.
