INTRODUCTION
It explained the dynamics of the increasingly vital production factor called IT. This theory is
probably the most well‐known and most widespread framework of the development
of information technology in organizations. It provides many insights in the ways in which IT
has evolved and continues to evolve.
PRESENTATION: (step by step exposition of the material)

STEP 1: Definition of information technology
the technology involving the development, maintenance, and use of computer systems,
software, and networks for the processing and distribution of data
We can simply define Information Technology as “any technology through which we get
information is called information technology”.
STEP 2: Definition of information and communication technology.
Information and communications technology (ICT) is an extensional term for information
technology (IT) that stresses the role of unified communications[1] and the integration
of telecommunications (telephone lines and wireless signals) and computers, as well as
necessary enterprise software, middleware, storage, and audiovisual systems, that enable users
to access, store, transmit, and manipulate information.
STE 3: List the stages of information evolution.
 Invention of printing
 Invention of telephone
 Invention of computer
 Invention of television
 Invention of radio
1. Invention of printing: The history of printing starts as early as 3500 BC, when the Persian
and Mesopotamian civilizations used cylinder seals to certify documents written in clay. Other
early forms include block seals, Hammered coinage, pottery imprints, and cloth
printing. Woodblock printing on paper originated in China around 200 AD. It led to the
development of movable type in the eleventh century and the spread of book production in
East Asia. Woodblock printing was also used in Europe, but it was in the fifteenth century that
European printers developed a process for mass-producing metal type to support an
economical book publishing industry. Johannes Gutenberg is usually cited as the inventor of
the printing press. Indeed, the German goldsmith's 15th-century contribution to the technology
was revolutionary — enabling the mass production of books and the rapid dissemination of
knowledge throughout Europe.
2. Invention of telephone: While Italian innovator Antonio Meucci (pictured at left) is
credited with inventing the first basic phone in 1849, and Frenchman Charles Bourseul
devised a phone in 1854, Alexander Graham Bell won the first U.S. patent for the device in
1876. The concept of the telephone dates back to the string telephone or lover's telephone that
has been known for centuries, comprising two diaphragms connected by a taut string or wire.
Sound waves are carried as mechanical vibrations along the string or wire from one
diaphragm to the other. The classic example is the tin can telephone, a children's toy made by
connecting the two ends of a string to the bottoms of two metal cans, paper cups or similar
items.
CONTEXTUALIZATION (of the material of the classroom situation)
The teacher uses the computer system, projector and e-board to display pictures and describe
the various inventions.
STUDENTS’ ENGAGEMENT IN THE LESSON
The students are engaged with identifying the different inventions and also engaged with a
video about the evolution of technology.
REVIEW (by teachers and students of familiar materials):
1. How is ICT related to computers?
2. What invention led to the discovery of the internet?
EVALUATION (in three learning domains…. Cognitive, affective, psychomotor)
QUESTIONS:
1. Define information technology?
2. Define information and communication technology?
3. List the stages of information evolution.
CONCLUSION: Different inventions have notable features that are common to them. The
features are related to periods and the technology in use. There are relationships
between computers and ICT.
