Democracy is a procedure and a mirror image where members of
a particular group will reach a shared decision that will be used in the
practice. According to Catt,1999 uttered,” It is easier to consider the
procedures that are specified for decision making than to look at the
details of a particular decision. It is the heart of politics because it
focuses at ways to deal with power conflicts in society. They relate on
decision making problem which the populace decisions are considered.

As citizen, we participate in the implementation of our government’s laws,
policies, and ordinances in order to have order and peace in our community.
It is nice that people cooperate in the programs and projects of our leaders.
These pro- grams and projects are for the good of the citizens. But there are
times that we are not only participants but also, we are appointed or elected as
representative to direct, guide, and delegate some tasks for the proper
implementation of the program or projects. Being participants and
representatives are two roles in a democracy.

The goal of a democratic society is to stabilize the development of good
citizenship. It was stressed that citizen should participate in political
activities. If there is active participation, inequalities will be expressed.
It is shown that citizens are influenced by the environment. Socializing is
the motivating factor that influenced children and adults. They learned in
school, peers, church congregation and political events. Mass media has
tremendous effects to children and young adults with regard to political
aspect. Media is considered agenda setting, priming and framing.

Political equality
People have equal rights to run for public office. If a person qualifies
for the fundamental requirements in order to run for public office. Political
equality is not acceptable in politics for there is equality in politics. The
argument is that only with financial resources, political resources, political
connections and popularity have the chance to run for public office. In the
Philippines, only the government official who are holding position have the
mechanism for more people to enjoy political equality. The birth of party-list
gave proportional representations in the House of Representatives of the
marginalized or under presented national, regional, and sectorial parties in
the Philippines. This party-list system gives smaller political parties,
marginalized, underrepresented, and financial inadequate sectors to be given
the voice in Congress. These sectors are the Women’s sector , Labor groups ,
Migrants , Teachers, Farmers, Indigenous people, Urban Poor people. This
system is noble but it is being used by some political parties who are not
qualified for an election. There is controversy on this that leads to the
abolishment of this system.

Citizens are the heart or the center of a country. They are working
for the good of the nation. Good governance of the elected officials will
lead the citizens to follow or retaliate to their promulgated laws.
Consultation
Governments serve the interests of the citizen. They do not know the
needs and interest of the people. So, consultation must be done. They
have to be responsive to these needs and interests in order to know the
public opinions of their constituents. There are several ways how to
respond to get the opinions of the people. They can utilize survey polls,
mass media as conduit to government, town hall meetings, press
conferences and other related strategies to gather people’s sentiments
both local and national platforms.

ICT stands for “Information and Communication Technology”.
From these three words we can define ICT as “a combination of
technological tools and resources that are used to manipulate and
communication the information. It refers to technologies that provide
access to information through telecommunication. It is similar to Infor-
mation Technology (IT) but focuses primarily on communication tech-
nologies. This includes the internet, wireless networks, cell phones and
other communication mediums.
According to UNESCO “ICT is a
scientific, technological and engineering
discipline and management technique used
in handling information, its application and
association with social, economic and
cultural matters. Here technological tools are
the electronic & digital devices like
computers, Internet and broadcasting
technologies etc.

WHAT IS IT?
D
1.1 Transition to Broadband
The World bank and the Broadband Commission have described
broadband as high-speed internet access, which is always on and capable of
undertaking multiple service provisions and functions. This definition renders
the traditional threshold of 256 kbps obsolete since it can no longer support
many of today’s computer applications.
Broadband networks in developed countries have rapidly become the
norm for regular households but its deployment in developing countries is
taking place at a much slower pace. In 2014, developed countries had an
estimated average fixed broadband penetration rate of 27.5%, which is
significantly higher than the 6.1% in developing countries and 0.3 % in
Less Developed Countries (LDCs).
The increase in broadband networks is supported by a considerable
growth in international bandwidth capacity. Developing countries account for
30% of International bandwidth in 2014, compared with the 9% ten years prior.
Despite this increase, it has to be noted that huge discrepancies still exist
between the international bandwidth per Internet user and even bigger
differences in bandwidth per inhabitant across the different regions in the
world. This would partly explain the complaints for the slow internet connection
we have in our country.
Broadband is an essential element in the national ICT strategy.
The availability of high-quality connectivity that allows for example,
uninterrupted video streaming and computerized stock trading, makes for
effortless business transactions and a more vibrant consumption behavior.
Infrastructure development must continue in order to achieve the national goals
related to ICT. (178)
1.2 Cloud computing and the Cloud economy
Cloud computing is another innovation in the field of computer
technology. Limited storage, corruption of files, expensive cost of computation,
and application hosting are just among the problem’s computer users encounter
when they store their files in their personal hard drive or when they develop
their own software programs. Cloud computing addresses these problems by
connecting a large pool of systems, whether public or private, in order to provide
an infrastructure for computation, data and file storage. When you store your
photos online instead on your own personal computer terminal, a webmail, a
social networking site, or an online business application, you are using cloud
computing. This model allows for easier transactions because different kinds of
computing services can be delivered over the internet and can be accessed
remotely for as long as you have a portable or mobile device with web access.
(Dela Cruz , 179)
37
WHAT IS IT?
D
Cloud providers offer services that fall under three categories: software as
a service provides internet-based applications that are hosted on a cloud and
offered as services to end users. Multiple end users are services with a single
service run on the cloud. The customers are able to get the service that they
need without paying huge sums for servers and software licenses. The providers
are similarly benefited with lower costs since only a single application needs to
be hosted and maintained. Examples of software as a service cloud computing
models are Google doc and Acrobat.com. Platform as a service, on the other
hand, allows the end user to design. develop, build, and test applications using
the platform provided by the cloud infrastructure. In this cloud computing
model, a layer of software and development environment is offered as a service
from which other higher levels of service can be built upon. Examples of plat-
form as a service cloud computing models are Google app engine and Azure
Service Platform. Lastly infrastructure as a service computing model provides
basic storage and computing capabilities using servers, storage systems,
networking equipment, and the like. It is pay-per-use model that allows the
customer to use his own software on the infrastructure. Examples of these are
Amazon Web Services and GoGrid.

Datafication is the term used to describe an organizational trend to the
process of putting together all the tools and technology needed to transform a
business into a data-driven enterprise. Datafication takes place mostly in
developed countries where there is already a reliable and high-quality
communications infrastructure but is also expected to rise in developing
countries with the continuous upgrade of their computing and communications
capabilities.
39
WHAT IS IT?
D
The toll operator simply collects the payment and gives change if needed.
A smart system may also use collected data to take action without human
intervention. Smart cars have been reportedly driving by itself without a driver,
almost in a similar fashion that planes can be flown on auto-pilot. The four
principles of smart infrastructures are data, analysis, feedback, and
adaptability. Data is at the heart of smart technology. It is this information that
will be interpreted and analyzed using mathematical models, which then
produces reliable decision-making tools for governments and organizations to
use. Feedback within a smart system provides opportunities to improve
performance. A smart system has to be adaptable to varying demands and con-
ditions, including future developments in the technology.
II. COMMUNICATIONS
One of the most dramatic changes that have taken place in the field of
communications is the rapid spread of mobile telephony. Before the advent of
mobile networks, teledensity or the number of telephone connections per one
hundred people in a specified geographic area, in many less developed countries
in less than 1%. By 2010, mobile teledensity in developing countries had
reached an astounding two-thirds of population. Greater connectivity is also
facilitated by the fact that mobile telephones can offer viable internet
access. This trend toward using mobile phones since 2010 continues, Eighty-six
percent of telephone subscriptions worldwide have already turned mobile,
including eight-nine percent in developing countries and ninety-eight percent in
sub- Saharan Africa as of 2015. (184)
40
WHAT IS IT?
D
Developing countries have felt the impact of the most where, for the first
time, people are allowed to communicate instantaneously at a distance wherever
they may be for as long as there is an existing network that services the area.
Third generation networks (3G) that enable Internet access are now available in
both developed and developing countries, though it may be unreliable in some
rural areas. Higher capacity (4G) networks are also now available. Mobile
devices have become the primary mode of Internet access for many users not
only in developed, but also in developing countries. Other trends that have
emerged since 2010 are:
Mobile phones now perform multiple other functions aside from its
primary purpose as a telephone. It is now a digital device that can serve the
function of a radio, a camera, a flashlight, an alarm clock, an audio and video
player, and many more.
The widespread availability and use of smart phones have led to the
creation of new mobile applications (“apps”), or small computer programs that
allow mobile devices to substitute for personal computers. Table computers
have also emerged with built-in functions of personal computers in portable
devices and designed to be continuously online and use cloud services. As with
smartphones, the use of tablet computers has increased following its adoption
of government and international agencies, which sees it as an important
development tool. (Dela Cruz et al. 2017, 185-186)

III. CONTENT
In small and medium scale enterprises, for instance, ICT enables more
cost-effective sourcing supplies, greater market reach, and better quality of
goods. ICT can also improve supply chain management and reduce information
asymmetry among producers, traders, retailers and consumers thereby
improving market efficiency.
42
WHAT IS IT?
D
According to Dela Cruz, et.al (2018, 187-189) the Benefits of the ICT are the following:
The ICT industry is, and continues to be one of the largest sources of Employ-
ment. According to the National Statistics Office (NSO), of the 202,794 formal
establishments recorded in 2011, 8.3% belong to core ICT group and support or
peripheral ICT group, which employs a total of 915,915 workers. From the core
ICT group, the greatest number of establishments are found in ICT enabled ser-
vices, broadcast media, and computer hardware, while the ones that employ the
greatest number of workers are IT-BPM, electronics and semiconductors, and
computer hardware firms.
The emergency of ICT paved the way for public services to gain greater accessi-
bility by using online channels and mobile phones. ICT has also led to the crea-
tion of a completely new sector, which is the app industry. Studies show that
the Facebook app alone has created more than 182,000 jobs in 2011, and that
the aggregate value of the Facebook app economy exceeds USD 12 billion
4. Business innovation
ICT provides all the needed tools for business expansion and innovation. These
days, most businesses prefer to fully employ all that ICT has to offer in terms of
bringing more efficiency in the manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of
their goods and services.
43

D
Challenges (Weakness or the downside of using ICT in general)
We have established that each ICT tool has its benefits and strengths. The best
ICT tool is not necessarily the new or expensive one; the best ICT tool is actually
dependent on the situation or context. For today’s discussion, we will look into
the downside of using ICT in general. While the potential benefits of ICT are
abundant, some challenges still need to be addressed in order to maximize the
full gains from investing in this technology.
Computing- Personal computers are still prohibitively expensive for many. This
is the reason why shared access through community centers and cybercafés I
still practiced. Some of the other costs that come with computer ownership
come from the maintenance of security, upgrades, compatibility of the hardware
and software, and adding accessory devices like printers, scanners, speakers
and the like. Complementary technologies that are non-PC devices like mobile
phones should be made into a viable option.
44
WHAT IS IT?
D
Mirandilla-Santos’ 2016 article, cited in (Arzadon 2018) stated that there
are large costs involved and poorer students / educational establishments can
end up being disadvantaged. This is often referred to as being a factor in the
digital divide. The digital divide exists between those in city centers and those in
remote rural areas between the literate and illiterate; between the educated and
the uneducated, between socioeconomic groups; and globally, between high
income countries or those who are industrially developed and low-income
countries. It can also exist within a community or within populations with
access to uneven forms of technology. Some public schools in the Philippines for
instance, have low-performance computers, low speed Internet connections, and
limited access to software, this can happen even in schools located in provincial
capitals.
She also reiterated that it can also be in the context of a nation-state and
how it is at par with other nation states. In the Philippines, a country that is
classified by the World Economic Forum as belonging to the lower-middle
income bracket, the effects of the digital divide are manifested in various ways.
For one, the Philippines together with India, reported the lowest average
connection speeds in the Asia Pacific region, with only a speed of 5.5 megabits
per second (mbps). Compare this with South Korea ‘s 28.8 mbps connection
speed. Still in the Asia Pacific region, Japan ranks first in Internet penetration
at 92%, while the Philippines logged in at 41%. While internet penetration in the
country continues to grow, it does so at a much slower pace compared to our
ASEAN neighbors.
The cost of Internet service is also an aspect to look at. According to the
report filed by the inter-agency group Arangkada Philippines in 2016, the
Philippine broadband service is one of the most expensive in the world while
offering the lowest value for money in terms of download speed experienced
vis-a vis the cost of a monthly subscription plan. Looking at the real price of
data services vis-à-vis the purchasing power of Internet users, the survey
showed that a typical Filipino minimum -wage estimated at $0.69 per hour
earner needs to log in over 10 hours of work to afford 1 GB, the second worst in
ASEAN. The same bandwidth is more affordable in neighboring countries, such
as Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. (Arzadon 2018, p.87)
45
WHAT IS IT?
D
The Manifestations of Digital Divide
(Adapted from Andreasson,2015)
Access It starts with access or lack thereof. Although Internet
penetration has increased, it continues to be a key
barrier as more people around the world remain offline
than online.
Age Older people are more likely unable to access ICT
services and facilities than younger populations despite
the nation that they could benefit from online social and
health services.
Bandwidth Connection speeds and bandwidth vary greatly.
Philippine bandwidth and connection speeds lag behind
our Asian counterparts.
Content The creation and consumption of local content are
important because the quality of digital usage depends
on the context and language being received by the user.
Most of the content found on the internet is written in
English, which may not be spoken by the online users.
Cost Socioeconomic status inhibits most from maintaining
their subscriptions to internet service providers.

Reading:
She also described that the social media arm of ICT has also led to
the formation of occupy movements, or movements that have no set of
leaders, no official set of demands, and no projected outcomes. It is simply
a laboratory of participatory democracy. In the United States, there was
“Occupy Wall Street”, which denounced economic injustice and protests
against the greed of corporate America. In Hongkong, there is the
“Umbrella movement”, which calls for fully free elections of Hongkong
executives that are free from interference from mainland China. These
movements may not be able to boast success in terms of correcting
problems they are protesting about, but it has created enough awareness
and political engagement from its constituents.

1. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are facilitating
collective action in ways never thought possible.
Email, websites, chat rooms, blogs and bulletin boards enable efficient
communication, organization, and even deliberation within social
movements of any size. McAdams (1996) believes that easier international
communication will not automatically translate into success for
international social movements because vital interpersonal networks cannot
be adequately forged and maintained online.

3. Social Movements Use the Internet to Access and Bypass Mainstream
Media
Successful movements (SMOs) seek media coverage to amplify their
concerns and frame pertinent issues for the public. Most social movements,
regardless of their size, believe they cannot succeed without media coverage.
Although mass media audiences have long been available to the few groups
with access to the centralized media apparatus, the Internet is now closing
the "media gap" for newer, less established groups. Websites allow move-
ments to control their self- representation to the public. Without the internet,
it would be virtually impossible for movements to gain momentum today even
absent mainstream media attention.

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED?
A
• Information and communication technology (ICT) has contributed im-
mensely to social and economic improvements, such as higher employ-
ment and productivity, increasing access to a higher quality of life.
• "Internet optimists" argue that ICTs have given voices to those who did
not have them and have had a democratizing impact around the world.
• The main impact of ICT is it includes both positive effects and negative
effects and looks at how individuals’ organizations and society are affect-
ed. Access to information: Possibly the greatest effect of ICT on individu-
als is the huge increase in access to information and services that has ac-
companied the growth of the Internet.
Assessment:
Answer the following questions:
1. How does ICT empower social relationships?
2. How does ICT facilitate political movements?

Learning Task 3: READING
To have an understanding more about our Brain and Neural Networks
as discussed in the past lesson, let us read the article of Daniel Shiffman.
Then let`s answer some questions. Write your answer in a sheet of paper.
Reflective Question:
1. How did Daniel Shiffman explain the connectivity of our own brain
processing into a some sort of computational system?
2. In the mind of Shiffman, do you think we can apply the concept of neural
network in real life?
82
WHAT IS IT?
D
Neural networks are considered as a massive parallel distributed
processor made up of simple processing units, which has a natural propensity
for storing experimental knowledge and making it available for use. In
comparison for brain processes, neural network can be resembled into two
ways. First is the information is outsourced by the network from its
environment through a process. Then, interneuron connection strengths,
known as synaptic weights, recorded the gathered knowledge.
For many years, it was believed that the human brain has fixed
memory, processing speed and intelligence. It was hardwired, meaning it has
permanently into it. It was assumed that we are born with a skills and
abilities naturally, which are unchanging for the rest of our lives. Then lately,
there has been a movement of interest of studying about the brain`s capacity
to change itself structurally and functionally throughout the duration of
one`s life cause of the influence of one`s environment as well as biological
factors.
83
WHAT IS IT?
D
Individuals like you are connected to one another on the basis of their
different goals, interests and common ground. The Social Network concept
views these social relations in terms of connections called ties and interact as
nodes. The core of forming social networks is to develop support systems
within the society itself. Interests and goals are influenced by sociocultural
factors such as ethnicity, gender, race and social class. This suggests that
human needs are realized through our interpersonal social relationships.
Through these connections and interactions, we form social relationships and
develop socialization.
84
WHAT IS IT?
D
Neural network can be an application of social network analysis
because neural networks can be used to effectively identify connections and
relations. It can be used to extract patterns and trace trends and connections
that are very complicated for humans to process or for other computers to
perform. A neural network can be used an expert to analyze a certain
category of information. It can be used to provide projections to a particular
event of interest. Examples of these are the pattern recognitions, like the
facial or optical analyzation through an app. Also the time prediction in the
study of business and economics. Neural networks can be taught also to
process an audio signal and screen it properly like what they are using in
identifying a person who is talking to, some apps are used in audio recording.
Another good example of neural network as an application is the Tesla
Self-driving cars, A.I. as a controller of the system of the car drives itself like a
human one. Lastly are sensors, like what in android phone or in an
computerized data system to record our fingerprints or information, using it
to detect our authenticity when using the system or a gadget as a security
feature.

Social relationship do affect or influence every individual thinking
process. Because as we interact with every individual around us we use our
thinking skill on how are we going to be able to socialize and fit with their
different characteristics and deal with their different attitudes. We individual
undergo in a process of thinking first as we socialize and interact with other
people around us. Social relationship change the way we think and act because
in this process you will be influenced by the people around you and change the
way you behave, interact, and think. One of the most common reason on why
social relationship influence the way of individual thinking is their peers that
surrounds them, their peers who they bond along the day. Our peer is one of the
biggest influence that change us in a simple or a domed way.

Example, if you join in a group that promotes pro-life choices, what
you learn an experience in hanging out with your peers or actors inside
the group, contributes to your mind in creating bases in giving opinion
about a certain issue. That is also works for political parties that
governs our country and also religious groups that existing across
communities. So, it is important for you understand the actions of social
exchanges and networks because it is foundational to the attainment of
your goals.

Roles in a community network can be examined and shown by a social
map. The best example of these are the Student Leadership programs like the
SSG, Sanggunian Kabataan or Youth Organizations. Because the youth is seen
as a contributing factor to the society, these groups are created to train you in
leading and caretaking the community. When you join in these groups, it will
add a “role” to you. Thus, it tends to transform yourself not only as an abiding
student but also a youth leader. It widens your worldview, not only thinking
about your academic performance but also caretaking and governing the welfare
of your co-students or constituents within the community, planning and creating
programs for them. Thus if we create a social network map of a specific person
who is a member of an organization, we can imagine that each member of the
network function on a specific role. Someone can be a president, or a treasurer
or a member who attend meetings and be an audience and advise the group. The
same situation can be applied in a classroom, someone is the leader or
then the other is the collector or the treasurer, some are peace keepers. In each
network we belong, we do some roles, maybe specific or same with others.
With the advent of the technology, you can access and share information
as well as participate in informal social exchanges. Such opportunities allow
them to learn new information. Considering that using the social media sites,
like Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, it also serves as a virtual social community
within a common interest. These new modes of learning are different to the ways
they are taught inside the school. This means that as youth access and share
information in the social media, they reconstruct, reconfigure and reproduce
knowledge. This make them a participant, a part of a newly created group. Youth
as like you, are engaging in issues that makes around in the social media.
Because of these, we tend to give our opinions and create a social connection
with other people with the same view as you are. Youth of today are now moving
into roles or such spaces that is usually taken by adults like commenting about
certain issues, tendencies that created because of the Internet. You as a student
learn more about the happenings in your environment because of the
technological progress of social media information.

Culminating Activity 16
In your previous chapter lessons, you have learned about the
Democratic Interventions, Information Communication Technology
(ICT) and Neural and Social Networks. Since we are in this new normal this
could limit our culminating activity to synthesize all your learning through
this given final learning task.
In this part, you are expected to propose the kind of future you
want, explain why you want that future and illustrate how you get
there.
Make sure you emphasize the product of your good decision making
on being a productive citizen of this country as you recall to generate good
practices in democracy, same with how ICT has shaped your society as you
know it today, and what it can still do for you in the future then lastly,
realizing your interconnections between your neural connections and social
realities which could aid you in developing your critical and creative thinking
skills as you see the significance of your roles played within the community
as a 21st Century learner.
Guide questions:
1. Are you always sure about what you wanted to do exactly, and whether
that you had different feelings about starting something new?
2. How do you feel about starting something new? Your long-term goal might
not be quite clear yet, but you may feel ready to start something now. Or
perhaps you would like to make sure that you are really clear about
where you’re headed before you take on a new commitment?
