An Evaluation Of The Function Of Information And Communication Technologies In The Spread Of Technical Knowledge; An Employee Centered Analysis

Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have revolutionized the way technical knowledge is disseminated and accessed across the globe. This paper explores the strategic role of ICTs in facilitating the spread of technical knowledge, encompassing various aspects such as education, innovation, collaboration, and economic development. By leveraging ICTs effectively, individuals, organizations, and societies can harness the power of information exchange to accelerate learning, foster innovation, and drive socio-economic progress. The dissemination of technical knowledge through ICTs is instrumental in overcoming geographical barriers and democratizing access to education and information. Online learning platforms, digital libraries, and open educational resources (OERs) provide learners with unprecedented opportunities to acquire technical skills and knowledge regardless of their location or socioeconomic background. The authors emphasize the potential of IT to enhance transparency, efficiency, and citizen engagement in the public sector. "Paradigm Shift" presents a compelling vision of the transformative power of information technology, heralding a new era of innovation, collaboration, and economic growth.
