stationary page in the sense that the
page is as is and cannot be manipulated
by the user
number three
which allows users to categorize and
classify or arrange information using
freely chosen keywords
number four
it's where services are offered on

it is where the owner of the website is
not the only one who is able to put
content
number six
it is where content is dynamic and is
responsive to user's input

software only when needed
rather than purchasing them
number eight
which allows users to interact with the
page instead of just reading a page the
user may be able to comment or create a
user account
number nine
what is a diverse information sharing
through universal web access
and last question number 10
it is the synergy of technological
advancements to work on a similar goal
or task
let us find out if your answers were
correct in the pre-test as we go along
with our lesson for today in this video
lesson we will be discussing all about
the introduction to ict in quarter 3
lesson 1 of empowerment technologies
let us remember the belk for today our
most essential learning competency is to
compare and contrast the nuances of
varied online platforms
sites and content to best achieve
specific class objectives or address
situational challenges
let us begin let us first define what
ict is
ict is the information and communication
technology information and communication
technology deals with the use of
different communication technologies
such as mobile phones telephone internet
to locate
save send and edit information
it is a study of computers as data
processing tools
it introduces students to the
fundamental of using computer systems in
an internet environment
how about we go specifically in our
country ict in the philippines
philippines is dubbed as the ict hub of
asia why
because of huge growth of ict related
jobs one of which is bpo or business
process outsourcing or call centers
let us also talk about the primary
composition of ict
first we have the computer
as we all know computer is an electronic
device for storing and processing data
typically in binary form
the second composition of ict is
internet
it is the global system of
interconnected computer networks that
use the internet protocol suite to link
billions of devices worldwide
[Music]
and the last one is world wide web it is
an information space where documents and
other web resources are identified by
urls interlinked by hypertext links and
can be accessed via the internet
now let's move on to the different kinds
or types of web pages
we have three
but first let us define what is a web
page it is a hypertext document
connected to the world wide web
to further understand it let's go in
each of the three kinds of web pages
the first one is web 1.0 web 1.0 is
static or also known as flat page or
stationary page in the sense that the
page is as is and cannot be manipulated
by the user let's take for example the
picture on the left which is the web
page of wikipedia
how about web 2.0 web 2.0 is the
evolution of web 1.0 by adding dynamic
web pages wherein the user is able to
see a website differently than others
examples include social networking sites
blogs wikis video sharing sites hosted
services and web applications
web 2.0 allows users to interact with
the page instead of just reading a page
the user may be able to comment or
create a user account most websites that
we visit today are web 2.0
now i present to you the six features of
web 2.0 with the following features you
would know that the pages or
applications that you visit are under
web 2.0 number one is faxonomy two rich
user experience 3 long tail 4 user
participation 5 software as a service
and 6 mass participation
let us go one by one with these features
of web 2.0 let's begin with fuxonomy
taxonomy is where an application or a
webpage allows users to categorize and
classify or arrange information using
freely chosen keywords example of that
is tagging or hashtagging let's take for
example instagram tiktok and twitter
the second feature is rich user
experience when content is dynamic and
is responsive to users input that is
rich user experience
an example would be a website that shows
local content in the case of social
networking sites when logged on your
account is used to modify what you see
in their website one perfect example is
youtube
the third one is long tail services are
offered on demand rather than on a
one-time purchase this is synonymous to
subscribing to a data plan that charges
you for the amount of time you spent in
the internet or a data plan that charges
you for the amount of bandwidth you used
examples could be facebook boost youtube
music spotify or canva
[Music]
the next feature is user participation
this is where the owner of the website
is not the only one who is able to put
content others are able to place a
content of their own by means of comment
reviews and evaluation examples could be
amazon.com online stores like lazada and
shopi and many more
next is software as a service users will
subscribe here to a software only when
needed rather than purchasing them
software as a service allows you to rent
a software for a minimal fee examples
are ms office or office 365 and even g
suite
next is mass participation it is a
diverse information sharing through
universal web access
examples are scribd and slideshare
wherein the masses can share can comment
on each other's uploaded media or file
and those are the features of web 2.0
remember that
let's move on to web 3.0 web 3.0 is also
called semantic web it is a movement led
by the world wide web consortium or w3c
that says the semantic web provides a
common framework that allows data to be
shared and reused across the application
enterprise and community boundaries
the aim of web 3.0 is to have machines
or servers understand the user's
preferences to be able to deliver web
content specifically targeting the user
for example our facebook online coupons
or voice search wherein what you are
looking for is given to you exactly as
it is in the easiest way
however there are five problems of web
3.0 first is compatibility html files
and current web browsers could not
support web 3.0 second one is security
the user security is also in question
since the machine is saving his or her
preferences third is vastness the world
wide web already contains billions of
web pages
vagueness
certain words are imprecise for example
the words old and small would depend on
the user and last is logic since
machines use logic there are certain
limitations for a computer to be able to
predict what the user is referring to at
a given time
now i know you are all in on what's
trending in our society especially in
social media let's talk about the trends
in ict
the first trend in ict is convergence
technological convergence is the synergy
of technological advancements to work on
a similar goal or task for example one
trend in ict under convergence is a
smart tv
the second one is mobile technologies
the popularity of smartphones and
tablets has taken a major rise over the
years this is largely because of the
device's capability to do tasks that
were originally found in personal
computers
the third trend is social media they are
websites applications or online channels
that enable web users to create
co-create discuss modify and exchange
user-generated content
and the last trend is assistive media it
is a non-profit service designed to help
people who have visual and leading
impairments a database of audio
recordings is used to read to the user
you may visit
www.assistivemedia.org for several audio
recordings
let me show you as well the six types of
social media first are social networks
it allows you to connect with other
people with the same interests or
background another type of social media
are bookmarking sites they allow you to
store and manage links to various
websites and resources the third social
media type is social news allow users to
post their own news items or links to
other news sources the fourth one is
media sharing they allow you to upload
and share media content like images
music and video fifth is micro blogging
these are sites that focus on short
updates from the user and last are blogs
and forums
they allow users to post their content
and see the following logos at the top
to see which social media applications
are under the following types
as last part of our lesson for today we
have here the kinds of operating systems
or os in the gadgets that we use first
we have ios these are widely used in
apple devices such as the iphone and
ipad the second one is android an open
source operating system developed by
google blackberry os this is used in
blackberry devices windows phone os it
is a closed source and propriety
operating system developed by microsoft
as a replacement to windows mobile
we also have simbian the original
smartphone os used by nokia devices we
also have web os originally used for
smartphones now used in smart tvs
and lastly we have windows mobile a
discontinued family of mobile operating
systems and was developed by microsoft
for smartphones and pocket pieces
hooray for today we're done with our
first lesson did you learn something if
