DCT and it's importance
What are Digital and Communication Technologies
and why are they important to me
So you’re probably wondering,
what’s DCT?
Well simply put DCT = Digital Communication Technologies.
There’s a
little bit more to it however. Digital and Communication Technologies is stated
as “the design and construction of communications technology that transmits
information in digital form (“onlinedictionary”,
2016). In short, DCT’s are digital tools that allow two or more people to
communicate with one another. They can be written, verbal, visual or audible
forms of communication. Some examples include: Texting via mobile phone, video
chatting via Skype, collaboration over Google Docs. Etc.

Our era has come to see the vivacious
importance of digital technology in our daily lives. The need to use these DCT’s
are unquestionable, they are quite literally everywhere. As a human it’s
important to use these DCT’s to keep in contact with friends, family and co-workers
in cases where collaboration or input is needed. As a future teacher, it will
be as worksheets or school work will need to be distributed to the class, or
other teachers.
Additionally, the use of DCT’s will help me improve as a
teacher. With the ability of being able to ask, share, search and request new
ideas from platforms such as Twitter will be able to not only help me but also
help spark creative ideas which in turn could potentially help others (Faden,
2016).
In essence, the use of DCT’s
have embedded themselves within modern-day society and in my opinion has too
many benefits to the way in which we operate to ever go back to traditional
methods.
