Concept of ICT
Explores the basic concepts of ICT together with its role and applicability in today's knowledge based society
After this lesson you can
- Define data and information and distinguish clearly between them, with an example
- List the stages of the data life cycle: creation, management, removal of obsolete data
In the paper: "Distinguish data from information" is a near-annual short-answer opener
After this lesson you can
- Explain the drawbacks of manual data processing (errors, duplication, delay, poor sharing)
- Describe how networks, the Internet, mobile computing and cloud computing overcame those drawbacks
In the paper: "Why did ICT replace manual methods" recurs as an essay-length Part A prompt
After this lesson you can
- Draw and label the input-process-output (IPO) abstract model
- Relate the IPO model to a computer system and to the general definition of a system
In the paper: Low period weight — expect a quick diagram or definition question, rarely essay-length
After this lesson you can
- Classify the hardware and software components of a computer system
- Distinguish proprietary from open-source software, with an advantage and disadvantage of each
In the paper: Proprietary vs open-source comparison is a frequent short-structured question
After this lesson you can
- List and describe the five data-processing steps: gathering, validation, processing, output, storage
- Identify data-gathering tools (OMR, OCR, MICR, card/tape readers, barcode readers, sensors) and validation methods (type/presence/range checks)
In the paper: Matching a named tool (OMR/OCR/MICR/barcode) to its purpose is a common MCQ pattern
After this lesson you can
- Identify the ICT tools and skills used in education, healthcare, agriculture, business, engineering, tourism, media and law enforcement
- Discuss, in depth, the benefit ICT brings to at least two named domains
In the paper: "Discuss the use of ICT in domain X" is a recurring Paper II Part A prompt — prepare 2-3 domains in real depth
After this lesson you can
- Explain the social and economic benefits of ICT
- Explain the social, economic, environmental, ethical, legal and privacy issues caused by ICT — piracy, phishing, copyright, plagiarism, licensing, digital divide, e-waste
In the paper: Ethical/legal/social issues (piracy, copyright, licensing) is a near-guaranteed structured question

RAMvsROM
Weak answer
RAM stores data temporarily. ROM stores data permanently.
Full-marks answer
RAM is volatile and can be both read from and written to, while ROM is non-volatile and is generally read-only — so RAM loses its contents when the power is off, but ROM does not.
