Identify and explain the role of information technology in everyday life, education settings, and business, as you encounter
many new technologies in your everyday lives: at home, work, in the streets, in places you visit for holidays, in public spaces,
through conversations and the media.
Describe a wide range of products of electronic information source going from electronic periodicals to CD-ROMs, from
mailing list to databases, all of them having a common feature of being used and sometime modified by a computer.
Electronic information sources are becoming more and more important for the academic community. Therefore, awareness
of these information resources is of paramount importance to the development in the 21st century.
Identify and discuss the importance of cyber security, as now societies are becoming more dependent on computer
networks, and therefore more vulnerable to cyber-crime and terrorism.
