Assessment 3 (Impact of IT in Business)

Impact of IT in Business
Probably the biggest Impact from IT is the amount of new jobs available for people now as there are an unlimited amount of jobs that involve lots of work from the computer such as:

·         Financial Services
·         Computer Engineer
·         Database Administrator
·         Software Developer
·         Product Designer
·         Construction (Designing a 3D model of a project)
·         Health Care



These are just some of the jobs which require computing knowledge however there is a downside which is if you are above a certain age where you might not have learned about computers at a younger age you won’t be able to get any of these jobs because people who have never used a computer most likely won’t bother learning how to and won’t know what they are able to do. Hence the reason I think it’s good that’s kids are getting more comfortable using computers and technology as a whole

  1. Businesses without internet would mean less jobs due to call centers, etc constantly using the internet, without the internet their business would go down hill, would this be a problem you'd agree with?

  2. i disagree, people that have not had much experience with computers are almost being forced into learning how to use them purely because everything is going online and if you want to keep up with the times then you have no choice but to learn, and if they do not, then businesses cannot get the client base in the same ways that they used to before the boom of IT

  3. I agree that there are a lot of older people out there with very little knowledge of computers, the past 15 years has seen an advance in IT that may have left many people feeling left behind. I think things should be done to educate the older generation about how to use this technology before they get left out entirely.

    1. I agree! My granny can barely work out how to get onto a game of chess or a game of solitaire on the computer without trying to learn how to do the whole, online banking thing as well as online shopping.
