If you have ever wondered what difference there is between computing (or computer science) and ICT, we intend to make the distinction clear.

In truth, ICT has nothing to do with computing. ICT looks at how to use general purpose software, such as Microsoft Office in an efficient manner. The sole purpose of ICT is to teach how to use a computer.

Computing, or computer science looks at how applications and computers are made. Computing is a very technical subject, with strong links to maths and logical thinking. The 'core' of computing is programming, as covered on this website, however looking in depth at how a computer works is also covered.
