Now, ICT information and communication
technology becomes one of the new thing in our life. It can be on our
education, communication and also our job.
In learning this subject we need to understand
the terminologies such as hypertext, hypermedia, MIS (Management Information
System) and multimedia.
HYPERTEXT
Hypertext is the grouping of relevant
information in the form of nodes. This nodes are connected together through
links. In this case of hypertext the nodes contain text or graphic.
HYPERMEDIA
Hypermedia
can be viewed as an extension of hypertext and multimedia. It’s based on the
concept of hypertext that uses links in the structuring information of the
system. The nodes and link concept is used in organisation of information in
hypermedia.
MULTIMEDIA
Multimedia
is the combining of different media types for example sound, animation, text,
graphic, and video for presentation information by making use of the computers.
MIS (MANAGEMENT
INFORMATION SYSTEM)
MIS is a system that provides information
needed to manage organizations effectively. It is involves three primary
resources:
1.
Technology
2.
Information
3.
People
It’s important to recognize that
while all three resources are key components when studying Management
information system. The most important resources is people. MIS are distinct
from other information systems in that they are used to analyse and facilitate
strategic and operational activities

We as a student and ICT users should
use that wisely. Because it can give us some advantages and disadvantages. The
advantages are we can access all of thing that we want, we can the information
in this world by browsing what you want to know. But there are disadvantages
like virus, hacker can broke our laptop or our account on the internet and it
can be use to cheat when students doing a test if they don’t know the answer
just browsing it.
