SUBTOPIC 1:
DEFINITION AND MEANING OF ICT
Definition of terms:
ICT is an acronym that stands for Information and Communications Technology
Information is data that has been processes to be meaningful to the receiver.
Communication is the process of sharing ideas, information, and messages with others in a
particular time and place. It could be verbal or non-verbal.
Technology is a general term is the process by which human beings fashion tools and machines to
increase their control and understanding of the material environment.
Therefore, ICT can be referred to the convergence (merging) of telephone networks with
computer networks through a single cabling or link system to transmit information from one place
to another.
On the other hand, ‘information technology (IT)’ is the study, design, development,
implementation, support or management of computer-based information systems particularly
software applications and computer hardware. IT deals with the use of electronic computers and
2
computer software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit and securely retrieve information
electronically.
Information Technology can also be defined as the processing and distribution of data using
computer hardware and software, telecommunications, and digital electronics.
Products of ICT include personal Computers (PCs), digital television, email, robots, tablets, ipads,
etc.
EVALUATION
(i) Define and Explain ICT
(ii) List the types of ICT
Broadcasting is the distribution of audio and video content to a dispersed audience through a
medium such as radio, television, etc.
The original term ‘broadcast’ refers to the literal ‘sowing of seeds’ on farms by scattering them
over a wide field. Broadcasting forms a very large segment of the mass media. Broadcasting to a
very narrow range of audience is called ‘narrowcasting’. A broadcast may ne distributed through
several physical means.
Types of Broadcasting
(i) Radio Broadcasting: is an audio (sound) broadcasting service, broadcast through the air as
radio waves from a transmitter to an antenna and therefore to a receiving device. Broadcasting
may be via AM (Amplitude Modulator) or FM (Frequency Modulation) stations.
(ii) Television Broadcasting: Digital television broadcasting is the transmission of audio and video
by digital signals (1s and 0s) while analogue transmits audio and video using analog signals (signals
with varying amplitude or frequency). Broadcasting on TV is usually on VHF (Very-High Frequency)
or UHF (Ultra-High Frequency).
(iii) Satellite TV System Broadcasting: Satellite Television System broadcasting is a form of
transmission that sends television signals directly to viewers. The signals are usually received by a
parabolic mirror generally referred to as a satellite dish. The dish serves as an outdoor antenna.
EVALUATION
(i) Define ‘Broadcasting’
(ii) List the types of Broadcasting

SUBTOPIC 1: TELECOMMUNICATIONS
Telecommunications is the exchange of information over significant distances using electronic
medium such as telephones, cables, telegraph, etc. it is any system that is used for communicating
over distances.
A basic telecommunication system consists of three primary units that are always present in some
form:
A transmitter that takes information and convert it to a signal
A transmission medium, also called the ‘physical channel’, that carries the signal
A receiver that takes the signal from the channel and converts it back into usable
information.
This is also known as Global System for Mobile communications (GSM). GSM is a digital cellular
phone technology based on time division multiple access (TDMA). GSM digitizes and compresses
data, then sends through a channel with two other streams of user data, each in its own time slot.
The GSM can be used for voice communications, text messaging, data transfer, etc.

Types of booting:
Cold booting
The start-up of a computer from a powered down, or off state is referred to as cold booting. It is
also called hard start. This is a method where computer is strictly on off state or position waiting
for the user to start it up by pressing ON switch button. At this stage, computer goes through
complete booting process by loading codes from the secondary storage into the primary storage
and then executing them.
Warm booting
Warm booting refers to restarting a computer that is already turned on via the operating system.
Restarting it returns the computer to its initial state. A warm boot is sometimes necessary when a
program encounters an error from which it cannot recover. On PCs, you perform a warm boot by
pressing the Ctrl+Alt+Del keys simultaneously. On Macs, you can perform a warm boot by pressing
the restart button.
Evaluation

2. State the types of booting.
Sub-topic 2:
Components of the windows desktop
The Start menu and Start button are user interface elements used in the various versions of
Microsoft Windows operating systems. The Start button provides a central launching point for
application and tasks.
Traditionally, the Start menu provides a customisable nested list of programs for the user to
launch, as well as a list of most recently opened documents, a way to find files and get help, and
11
access to the system settings. Later enhancements via Windows desktop update included access
to special folders.
Windows Desktop
The desktop offers many features that make using your computer easier. You can easily start
programs or applications, copy and move files from one place to another, and drag and drop files
and program where you want them on the computer or even on to a program’s icon to open a file.
On the desktop, are small pictures that represents a file, program, or other objects or functions
known as icons. Icons are representation of objects and can be found on the desktop, taskbar,
Start menu, and throughout window.
The Start menu starts programs, opens documents, and access most parts of the system. Window
can be customized as needed.
Task Bar
The task bar is the horizontal bar at the bottom of the screen. The task bar is visible almost all the
time except otherwise customized, unlike the desktop which can get obscured by the window on
top of it. It has four main sections:
1. The Start button, which opens the Start menu;
2. The Quick launch toolbar, which lets you start programs with one click.
3. The middle section, which shows you which programs and documents you have opened
and allows you to quickly switch between them.
4. The notification area, which includes the clock and icons.
Window Background
Desktop background (also called wallpaper) can be a digital picture from your personal collection
or one that comes with windows. You also select a coloured for your desktop background or use a
colour to frame your background pictures.
The background of window desktop can take any colour or design. We have different types of
background depending on the choice of the user.
