Component 4: Identify the Impacts of ICT in Society

This component deals with the integration of ICT in our day-today lives and the impact this has on our lives, both positively and potentially negatively. Students should also be able to explain the uses of ICT at school, at home and within the local community. As we all know, ICT is becoming more and more utilised in our daily life, examples of this include ordering pizza using a phone app, scanning QR codes to obtain information about various things, even paying bills via phone apps and more. Although some of these may not be completely relevant to your children right now, it is important that they understand how these types of applications and devices may affect them in the future.
