Through the course of history, there have been discoveries and inventions that have changed social processes and structures greatly. The agricultural revolution and industrial revolution created the agrarian and industrial societies respectively. We are now in another such age, brought on by [[wikipedia:Information_and_communications_technology|Information Communication Technologies]] (ICT).  With information creation, access, processing and sharing becoming quicker and simpler, society is now being shaped by these processes, so much so that, the term [[wikipedia:Information_society|Information Society]] is used to describe society today. Participating in this society requires the development of new skills as well as an understanding of how these processes are affecting society. It is the responsibility of the education system to respond to this by helping students develop an understanding of ICT, its impact on society and the possibilities for learning through ICT. The education system also has to support the building of skills in students that will make them capable of functioning in, and be responsive to, a society shaped by ICT.
