IMPORTANCE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IN THE MODERN WORLD Information technology plays a major role in the modern education.

Various ideas are given by these technologies. In this faster and modern world, Education is an unavoidable segment. In olden days, Education was only the study in Hand books, but now , it is more advanced and practical. Now days, computer plays a active part in the modern education. It is more useful for making many assignments and projects. Now a days, In ordinary schools also, the education is through a form named Smart class. It makes so attractive and good looking for the students whose are backward in their studies also. In my opinion, the education is not only a hand book information, but also it is a philosophy. Education is not only for achieving a proffesion, but also to become an good personality in the present society. Internet plays a active role in studies and expiriments. But now it become an great danger to the day to day life of the human beings. The huge interferene of IT products leds the students to terrorism. Some wrong informations led the new genetration I mean some of them to terrorism. They are offered a huge amount to them and their families , thus becoming a revenge mode to the nation. So due to these major problems, government is conducting the awareness programmes to the new generations. Through television, we can acquire knowledge about various aspects which is happening around our world. Intelligent or smart students in the IT fields, were given oppurtunities to the foreign countries. This is an great encouragement for the students for knowing more about the IT. The new aspect of information technology is Online tution teaching. It plays a major role in the field of Education. Improvement of It makes a new way for the students for new inventions. In olden days this system was only in the foreign countries , but now its active on India. Childrens are the asset of the nation -India. Various technologies such as Radio, Television etc gives out lot and lot of information about whats happening in this faster and modern world. But the interference of IT makes a drawback of philosophical concept of human life. Thus I conclude that , if We use the IT in a proper way, we can say that information technology plays a major Role in the field of Education. http://savinayak.blogspot.com/2010/11/importance-of-information-technology-in.html Today's society is different to the one that existed not so many years ago. Our society is constantly changing. The most important characteristics of our era may be the transformation, transmission and dominion of information. We live in an information society where the leading role has been given to new technologies, especially those devoted to information. Our society could not be imagined without new technologies and their role both in this society and in human life in general. Modern technology has revolutionized peoples communication. Radio, telephone, satellite communication, cellular technology, wireless Internet in the modern day two people can chat with a help of computer when they're in different places. Technology is building bridges between people on opposite sides of the globe, bringing people from all cultures and backgrounds into contact with each other. The Internet hosts an enormous information base. Technology has made it possible for this information to reach far and wide. Online education has set in, making it possible to render knowledge to students inhabiting remote locations on Earth. It is due to the World Wide Web that the information could reach one and all over the computer networks. Also modern technology has also provided ways to grow more food, transport more people and make more products for a growing society. Another biggest benefits of modern technology is that human health have improved because of its application. As knowledge of the body and its functions improves, and as new tools to help heal it are created, life lasts longer. Not only does life extend, but people can live more comfortably, and recover from wounds and diseases that even a half a century ago would have been fatal. Nowadays machines have begun executing laborious, repetitive tasks. People do not have to slog to the extent they did before the advent of technology. Automation of processes has brought about efficiency and speed. Speedy performance of tasks has saved human effort and time. But in my opinion, new technologies sometimes are making people dull. For example, if you have to add 85+63+11+759 (or something difficult like that) then you'll surely depend on calculators of such devices. But where's our mind mechanism? So we need technologies, because they are making our life more comfortable and safety, but lets' not make technologies our habit. http://academicwriting.wikidot.com/11-the-importance-of-new-technologies-in-our-life

Information technology (IT) is the application of computers and telecommunications equipment to store, retrieve, transmit and manipulate data,[1] often in the context of a business or other enterprise.[2] The term is commonly used as a synonym for computers and computer networks, but it also encompasses other information distribution technologies such as television and telephones. Several industries are associated with information technology, such as computer hardware, software, electronics, semiconductors, internet, telecom equipment, e-commerce and computer services.[3][4] In a business context, the Information Technology Association of America has defined information technology as "the study, design, development, application, implementation, support or management of computer-based information systems".[5] The responsibilities of those working in the field include network administration, software development and installation, and the planning and management of an organization's technology life cycle, by which hardware and software is maintained, upgraded and replaced. Humans have been storing, retrieving, manipulating and communicating information since the Sumerians in Mesopotamia developed writing in about 3000 BC,[6] but the term "information technology" in its modern sense first appeared in a 1958 article published in the Harvard Business Review; authors Harold J. Leavitt and Thomas L. Whisler commented that "the new technology does not yet have a single established name. We shall call it information technology (IT)."[7] Based on the storage and processing technologies employed, it is possible to distinguish four distinct phases of IT development: pre-mechanical (3000 BC 1450 AD), mechanical (14501840), electromechanical (18401940) and electronic (1940present).[6] This article focuses on the most recent period (electronic), which began in about 1940. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_technology The Role of Information Technology in Modern Life Referring to information technology in simpler terms of its meaning would mean the entire world of computers hardware, networking and software among other facets that have developed over the years. This is a sector that is in charge of securing all the information that is procured through this means and then making arrangements for its safe storage and delegation to different departments that may require the same in its area of work. This is a department that is a part of every large to medium company. Over the years of the growth of IT this department in companies has been in popular demand. It has been given the responsibility of managing the large resources of information generated through research and development or even through the internet exchanges between organizations. So what exactly is the role of information technology in modern companies? There are scores of information and data generation within each sector of industry and individual companies; this is the result of intensive research and development carried out by such study teams within the organization. Companies are well known for their huge expenditures in various fields of study that is related to their existing field of endeavor. For instance millions of dollars go into the development of biotechnological concepts and medicines among pharmaceutical companies. Similar procedures of growth are carried out by telecommunications companies and heavy equipment companies too. As a result of the study information and experimental details along with prognosis of the results are discussed in detail and is also regarded as classified material for any company. This is where they have invested hugely and would like to safeguard the results till they are safely established in research and patented for safety. Until then its availability could lead to theft of intellectual property and a huge loss in the aftermath. It is here that information technology offers virtual solutions in the form of small chips or user id and password protected software that would store all such vital information without any chance of been intercepted. There are highly advanced systems developed for screening of the person each time they access it which makes it impossible to break the code and hack it even. In the event of any interception there are software tools to lead you directly to the source and thus the thief. Information technology has also been incorporated largely in the operations of military and its intelligence. This is a crucial segment of a countrys administration with classified information and intelligence that could bring severe consequences if left unattended. There are software systems and designs that are specially structured for the defense forces of countries to enable highly advanced and secured protection to such details. The development of systems is very often customized to the needs and requirements of organizations themselves. No two design structures and software are usually made in the same to avoid creation of a prototype. There are different ways of identification with facial mapping and fingerprint access incorporated within these software systems to ensure highly protected access.
