The effects I.T had on the economy

I.C.T has taken over jobs in the manufacturing industry and many people have been made redundant.  However new jobs which look after the high-tech machines which now do the jobs of the normal workers have been created.

For transport I.C.T has now been put into cars and lorries which now have sat nav installed into the vehicle so helping the driver.

Using a video conference would save a company a lot of money as it could be cheaper to talk in a video chat than sending an employee on a aeroplane to another country.

There's an increase in productivity as a machine can do things faster than a human being so are able to make more products than an human in a short space of time.

The minerals which are used for making mobile phones is starting to run out so people are having to look for other minerals. this is making the price for titanium higher so making it more expensive for companies to get their hands on it.

effects of I.C.T in the local communities

The effects of I.C.T in the local communities has been able to get rid of barriers, like time, space and distance so they are able to talk to people in the outside world.

Local shops are struggling because of I.C.T. More people are getting stuff from the internet and not going to the shops to buy groceries except for when they have to do a big shop for the whole family.

With banking, people are able to check how much money they have in their bank account due to I.T and are able to see if the money for a purchase has gone through.

Communities are able to talk to the outside world through the power of the internet, Facebook and twitter. people can be more social able now more than they were+ 100 years ago.

 I.C.T is keeping people safe on the roads and in towns via CCTV cameras which keep track of things that happen every where.

People have to keep moving houses just to have a job as their previous employment has made them redundant. This is because computers are able to do a job more productively than a human. 

Families are now buying more gadgets for their kids and so it is costing the parents a lot of money such as iPhone 5, Xbox and apple macs so it is putting pressure on parents.
