ICT refers to technologies that provide access to telecommunications like the internet, wireless networks, and cell phones. This document discusses how ICT can be used in research to identify information sources, analyze information critically, manage information effectively, and link to specialized databases. ICT also aids in literature searches, data collection, quantitative and qualitative data analysis, and detecting plagiarism. The key uses of ICT in research are to speed up the research process, increase knowledge contribution, and improve research quality through expanded accessibility of data.
