15. ICT is an umbrella term that includes any communication device or application, encompassing: radio, television, cellular phones, computer and network hardware and software, satellite systems and so on, as well as the various services and applications associated with them, such as videoconferencing and distance learning. ICTs are often spoken of in a particular context, such as ICTs in education, health care, or libraries (Techtarget, 2009).
16. ICT includes any communication device or application encompassing: radio, television, cellular phones, computer and network hardware and software, satellite systems, as well as the various services and applications associated with them, such as video-conferencing and distance learning (Ministry of Education, 2010).
17. Digital communications and communications technologies, including “computers” and devices not traditionally labeled “computers” (although arguably they have many of the capabilities and functionality of computers). These include servers, hand held devices, and mobile telephones. Part of the move in using this term for some has been to avoid particular research agendas and scholarship associated with the concept of CMC.

19. Design a set of technologies that includes any communication device or application, encompassing: radio, television, cellular phones, computer and network hardware and software, satellite systems and so on, as well as the various services and applications associated with them, such as videoconferencing and distance learning. ICTs are often spoken in a particular context, such as ICTs in education, health care or libraries. The importance of ICTs lies less in the technology itself than in its ability to create greater access to information and communication in underserved populations.

21. Various form of technology, such as computers, digital forms of communication, educational and social tools that enable communication and collaboration among users.
22. ICT can be seen as a set of information technological tools that can be chosen as supporting educational environment. The technological resources can support the creation and development of ideas by stimulating the learners to engage into deeper learning process and activities.
23. Term that covers all advanced technologies in manipulating and communicating information, particularly on these two communities: education and government. General term that describes any technology that helps to produce, manipulate, store, communicate, and/or disseminate information. Presumably, when speaking of Information Technology (IT) as a whole, it is noted that the use of computers and information are associated.
24. These are modern technology facilities that enable communications such as the internet, computers, radio, television and telephone.
25. ICT includes any communication device or application encompassing: radio, television, cellular phones, computer and network hardware and software, satellite systems, as well as the various services and applications associated with them, such as video-conferencing and distance learning (Ministry of Education, 2010).
