Digital technology is the use of
electronic tools, systems, and processes to store, process, create, and communicate information. It involves converting information into binary code, which is made up of 0s and 1s. Computers can then process this digital information by performing calculations, executing commands, and decoding the results back into a human-readable format.
Digital technology has become an integral part of our lives, changing the way we work, communicate, and relax. Some examples of digital technology include:
Devices: Smartphones, laptops, tablets, smart TVs, digital cameras, and other devices that use digital signals
Systems: Cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things (IoT)
Software: Operating systems, software applications, development tools, and data processing software
Online services: Websites, social media, email, streaming services, and e-commerce
Information systems and data processing: Databases, database management systems, data analysis, and information processing
Digital technology can have both positive and negative impacts. For example, it can support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals, such as ending extreme poverty and reducing maternal and infant mortality. However, it can also come with risks and harms, especially for children.
