Information and Communication Technology. Although in the past ICT and IT have often meant the same thing, distinction is being made between the two. ICT extends beyond just the technological use of computers and concerns the use of critical cognitive skills such as literacy, reading and numeracy as well as the application of technical skills and knowledge ('Digital Transformations', Educational Testing Service, 2002)
