  3. 3. Faster Communication Speed  With the capability bandwidth, broadband connection has a good speed we can acess on internet and can browse any information.  We can share information through E-Mail, Business partner instantly.  It saves our Time and is inexpensive.  Now a days wireless modem (dongel) has also good speed for browsing.
  4. 4. Effective sharing of Information  With use of ICT, information, news, opinion, Mailing list, forums etc can be shared by people all around world  Popular chating sites are: 1) Facebook 2)Orkut 3)Google+ 4)Yahoo!  For sharing information page like: 1) Blog 2) Forum Can be use.
  5. 5. Paper Less Environment  In age of Technology the use of paper had become less due to use of digital medium to store and process information.  Almost all data can store in the digital form.  hence, paper environment has become less comparatively.
  6. 6. Social problems  There are some negative impact of ICT.  It has created social problem in society  Now a days, people use online communication rather than real time coversations.  People tend to become more individualistic and introvert.  Social networking can cause adverse effect on young mind
  7. 7. Health problem  A computer may harm users if they use it for long time frequently.  Computer users are exposed to bad posture.  It cause problem of eye strain, physical and mental stress.
  8. 8. Other problems • The PC can exposed to hacking • social networking site can be hacked • Online account can be hacked
  9. 9. Impact of ICT can also divides as  Positive Impact of ICT  Negative Impact of ICT Positive Impact on organization Negative Impact on orginazation
  10. 10. Positive Impact of ICT on people Access to information: Possibly the greatest effect of ICT on individuals is the huge increase in access to information and services that has accompanied the growth of the Internet. Some of the positive aspects of this increased access are better, and often cheaper, communications, such as VoIP phone and Instant Messaging. In addition, the use of ICT to access information has brought new opportunities for leisure and entertainment, the facility to make contacts and form relationships with people around the world, and the ability to obtain goods and services from a wider range of suppliers. Improved access to education, e.g. distance learning and on-line tutorials. New ways of learning, e.g. interactive multi-media and virtual reality. New job opportunities, e.g. flexible and mobile working, virtual offices and jobs in the communications industry. New tools, new opportunities: The second big effect of ICT is that it gives access to new tools that did not previously exist. A lot of these are tied into the access to information mentioned above, but there are many examples of stand-alone ICT systems as well:
  11. 11. Positive Impact on people more  ICT can be used for processes that had previously been out of the reach of most individuals, e.g. photography, where digital cameras, photo-editing software and high quality printers have enabled people to produce results that would previously required a photographic studio.  ICT can be used to help people overcome disabilities. e.g. screen magnification or screen reading software enables partially sighted or blind people to work with ordinary text rather than Braille.
  12. 12. Negative Impacts of ICT on people • Job loss: One of the largest negative effects of ICT can be the loss of a person’s job. This has both economic consequences, loss of income, and social consequences, loss of status and self esteem. Job losses may occur for several reasons, including: Manual operations being replaced by automation. e.g. robots replacing people on an assembly line.Job export. e.g. Data processing work being sent to other countries where operating costs are lower. Multiple workers being replaced by a smaller number who are able to do the same amount of work. e.g. A worker on a supermarket checkout can serve more customers per hour if a bar-code scanner linked to a computerized till is used to detect goods instead of the worker having to enter the item and price manually • Reduced personal interaction: Being able to work from home is usually regarded as being a positive effect of using ICT, but there can be negative aspects as well. Most people need some form of social interaction in their daily lives and if they do not get the chance to meet and talk with other people they may feel isolated and unhappy.
  13. 13. Negative Impacts on Orgazination     Cost:  the cost of using ICT may cause a number of problems for organisations.  A lot of ICT hardware and software is  expensive, both to purchase and to maintain. An ICT system usually requires specialist staff to run it and there is also the    challenge of keeping up with ever-changing technology. These extra costs should be offset by the poitive effects of using  ICT, but if an organisation gets its cost-benefit analysis wrong it may lose money.     Competition:  this is usually thought of as being a good thing, but for some organisations being exposed to greater  competition can be a problem. If the organisation is competing for customers, donations, or other means of funding  nationally or even internationally, they may lose out to other organisations that can offer the same service for less money.     Security:  this is always a problem for any organisation that uses ICT. Data must be kept secure, Internet connections  must be protected from attack, new viruses and other forms of malware are released nearly every day.
  14. 14. Positive Impact on Organization  Communication:  By using ICT has brought a number of benefits to organisations,  such as: Cost savings by using e.g. VoIP instead of normal telephone, email /  messaging instead of post, video conferencing instead of traveling to meetings, ecommerce web sites instead of sales catalogues. Access to larger, even worldwide,  markets. Web sites can be seen from all parts of the world and orders can be  taken wherever there is a compatible banking system to process payments, e.g.  credit / debit card, Pay-Pal, bank transfer facility. Web sites also have 24 hour  opening and are available every day of the year. Flexible response. Organisations  with good communications can respond to changes quickly. This may mean better  customer relations, an improved supply chain for goods and services, faster  development of new products to meet a new opportunity, etc.  Security: Although the use of ICT can bring its own security issues, see next  section, it can also solve or reduce some security problems, e.g. Encryption  methods can keep data safe from unauthorized people, both while it is being  stored or while it is being sent electronically. This is important for reasons such as  data protection legislation or commercial secrecy. ICT enables physical security  systems such as fingerprint, iris or facial recognition.
