"Role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the present time"

Information and communication technologies (ICT) create an important function in every aspect of today's life. ICT has changed the way people communicate with one another, how we find the information we need, how we work, how we conduct business, how we interact with government agencies, and how we manage our social lives.

Personally, ICT helps me to connect with people or enjoyment easily. It contributes to improving the quality of life because it can be used as a medium of instruction and education, as a means of mass communication, to promote and enhance practical and vital issues such as health and the social circle. It provides more significant experience and can help to gain and access information.

Professionally, it enhances the technology to be more convenient to businesses and work fields. It also makes us easier to communicate when working, having job interviews, such as receiving emails when you passed or not. It also makes our life easier when making some letters or invitations, such as creating Mail Merge. Also, it helps us during this new normal set-up (e.g., distance learning, work from home), where (online classes apps) technologies are used as a platform to learn.

ICT has a massive influence on social purposes. Transactions have become more comfortable, faster, and more reliable in all aspects of life, such as sending texts, money transfers, service delivery, and relief and rescue operations, which provide advanced warning in disasters and calamities society's safety.

My chosen strand is Science Technology Engineering Mathematics (STEM). ICT managed to help me gather information to answer my assignments and comply with my performance tasks. ICT may provide answers to my explorations and discoveries, enriching my knowledge and experiences. Moreover, the role of ICT contributes to teaching and learning by increasing the effectiveness of education. ICT could be a significant motivator for us, students' learning, and helps us participate more in knowledge sharing.
