SEJARAH PERKEMBANGAN TEKNOLOGI INFORMASI DAN KOMUNIKASI (TIK)

Summary

This video explores the history and evolution of information and communication technology (ICT) from prehistoric times to the modern era. It covers the use of early symbols and cave drawings in prehistory, the invention of writing and papyrus, the discovery of paper in ancient China, and the development of the printing press by Gutenberg. Key milestones such as Morse code, the telephone, early computers, and the rise of the internet are also discussed. The presentation emphasizes the profound impact of ICT on education and modern life, including remote learning and digital communication.

Takeaways

• 😀 The history of information and communication technology (ICT) has evolved significantly from ancient times to the present.
• 😀 During the prehistoric era, humans used primitive systems for visual communication, such as cave drawings of hunting scenes.
• 😀 Around 3000 BCE, the Sumerians developed the first form of written symbols, which evolved into language and communication systems.
• 😀 In 2900 BCE, ancient Egyptians introduced hieroglyphics, a symbolic language where different symbols combined to form meaningful expressions.
• 😀 By 500 BCE, humans had begun using papyrus fibers from plants around the Nile River, laying the foundation for early paper-like materials.
• 😀 In 105 CE, the Chinese invented paper made from bamboo fibers, which became the basis for modern paper.
• 😀 The modern era saw the invention of the printing press by Johann Gutenberg in 1445, revolutionizing mass communication.
• 😀 In 1930, the first computer program was written by Ada Lovelace in collaboration with Charles Babbage's analytical engine.
• 😀 Samuel Morse invented the telegraph and Morse code in 1837, marking a significant development in long-distance communication.
• 😀 The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1877, further advancing communication technology.
• 😀 The 20th century saw the development of electronic computing, with John Atanasoff and Clifford Berry creating the first digital electronic computer in 1939.
• 😀 From 1973 to 1990, the concept of the internet began to emerge, followed by the introduction of the World Wide Web (WWW) in 1991, leading to the internet-driven world we live in today.

Q & A

What was the primary function of early communication technology in prehistory?

In prehistory, communication technology mainly served as a system for recognizing and representing the forms and information humans encountered, such as hunting scenes and animals depicted on cave walls.

When and where was the first known use of writing symbols?

The first known use of writing symbols occurred around 3000 BCE by the Sumerians, who used symbols formed from pictograms as characters or letters.

What is the significance of Egyptian hieroglyphs in early communication technology?

Egyptian hieroglyphs, used around 2900 BCE, were a symbolic language where each symbol represented a specific meaning. When combined, these symbols formed a new meaning or word.

What material did the ancient Egyptians use for writing, and why was it significant?

Ancient Egyptians used papyrus, made from plants around the Nile River, as the material for writing. It marked a significant advancement in communication by providing a portable medium for writing.

What major innovation did the Chinese make in the year 105 CE?

In 105 CE, the Chinese invented paper, which was made from bamboo fibers. This paper became the foundation for modern paper used worldwide today.

What was Johann Gutenberg's contribution to communication technology in 1445?

Johann Gutenberg developed the printing press in 1445, using movable type made of iron. This innovation revolutionized the ability to mass-produce printed materials.

Who wrote the first computer program, and what was the machine used?

In 1930, Ada Lovelace, in collaboration with Charles Babbage, wrote the first computer program. They used Babbage's Analytical Engine for processing data and generating output.

What was Samuel Morse's contribution to communication technology in 1837?

Samuel Morse developed the telegraph and Morse code in 1837, which allowed for long-distance communication using coded signals.

What major invention did Alexander Graham Bell contribute in 1877?

In 1877, Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone, which became the first device to transmit human voice over long distances.

How did the introduction of the internet and World Wide Web change communication?

The introduction of the internet, from 1973 to 1990, and the World Wide Web (www) in 1991, significantly transformed communication by connecting people globally through websites and online platforms like Google.
