What have I learned in ICT, Possible impact of ICT in the society, and Our role as a youth to promote the responible use of ICT

ICT made me realized how our world today was change. It is like our society experienced the process of Evolution (like the picture above)example from carvings,to caligraphy, to papers, to mails, to text, to chat and video chat when communicating. As our lessons in ICT ended I have learned so much, from how to be a Good Digital Citzen, my attitude or manners in engage social media or nettiquette. About Cybercrimes like Cyber bullying, hacking and etc., its laws and punishments. How to make my work easy by using merge mails, My rights and responsibilities in using technology, how ICT develop us and our society and making blogs to share my opinions and ideas.

 I also learned how ICT affects our society even in the past, in the present and to the future. ICT becomes a platform for change,it widens the area of spreading advocacy, information, donation and campaigns. It played a key role in the history of the Philippines in important occasions like EDSA Revolution, Million People March and etc. ICT provides a big help in giving jobs like software engineers, IT experts and many more. It made our society high-tech and globalize in the way we can compete to other countries. ICT improves education and works, it gives easy access of information and a way to express opinions. Maybe if I will type all the help that ICT have/will provide I will finish next year. But ICT doesnt only have a positive impact but also a negative side.
to know more about the Positive and Negative impact of ICT, see my blog about it below this one.

As a youth I will promote a responsible use of ICT in the way of being careful in what I post. I will also advice my friends and ask their help to spread that we must be aware of our actions and words in using social media. I will also post a friendly reminder note/quote in my social media accounts to spread awareness on how to be a good digital citizen and how to avoid cybercrimes especially cyberbullying.I will apply everything I have learned in our lessons to do my best to promote proper use of internet especially in the different social medias. I believe that ICT has a big help in shaping us, youth, and most especially our society because of its bad and good impact. I/ we will encourage my fellow youth to use ICT to promote peace and happiness and not war, I will remind them that we are the hope of the future.

Positive and Negative Impact of ICT in the society

Video was not mine.

Credits to : Youtube and to the owner of the video.

In addition to the the video, I want to point out 3 different points that ICT both had a positive and a negative effect.

1.A wider place for people to participate

Positive: New friends to meet and organizations or groups to join

Negative: you are opening your private life into a large world.

2. Impact to the communication

Positive: Means of communicating to others are easy, through a click to  call or text or chat.

Negative: other people can easily prank or send a joke messages to you

3.Easy access of information

Positive: you are updated with the latest news and trends because of ict

Negative: not all information in the internet are true,

We must use ICT with  proper limit so that we can avoid to do wrong deeds. ICT maybe have a positive and negative impact but it is very useful especially in our society.

Outreach Program and Catechism

ICT PROJECT FOR SOCIAL CHANGE EXAMPLE:

School’s mission stating about Makabayan, maka-Diyos, Makatao never did really put into action. We are catholic students yet we never apply this goals set for us to act. There is no sense after all if what stated at it will never be practice. This outreach program and catechism is a simple way that aims to put a smile on the benefactors of the program and at the same time we will practice the act of giving love and hope to others.

The purpose of this project is to build connection from the school to the community. This project will benefit not only to the receiver of the program but as well as the givers or us catholic students because it will be a way for us to be inspire and  exercise our love, care and help to others. It will be a good way then to include catechism in the event so we could teach those good values, simple prayers or what we do in a catholic school. At the same time, in the simple things we will do and give for them a smile on their faces will make you inspire and things will be worth it. It is a way to know others and make God closer to them. This activity will be themed “Sharing and Giving are the ways of God”.

The project will be made possible through the help of higher people. Who are they? They are the student leaders, administrators, teachers, government officials and you. Yes, you can help us if you’re free. Months before the planned activity we will conduct a fund raising event. We will posts it on social media like Facebook or even create blog post so we could raise awareness and give chance to others to volunteer, give your old stuffs, donate cash or share your time and what you just have. We will update the details and posts pictures so that everyone will see what is our goal in doing this program. We will also ask solicitations to the different establishments so that we can give more gifts to the 50 children benefactor of this event that will be held at Barrio 143, Liya, Pampang on February 30, 2017.

For more question and information you can visit the school page.
