Information Technology : Grade 12

“Everybody should learn to program a computer, because it teaches you how to think.” - Steve Jobs Information Technology is the study of the various interrelated physical and non-physical technologies used for the capturing of data, the processing of data into useful information and the management, presentation and dissemination of data. Information Technology studies the activities that deal with the solution of problems through logical and computational thinking. It includes the physical and non-physical components for the electronic transmission, access, and manipulation of data and information. We do focus on learning to code, about 60% of the time is allocated to this, but as indicated above the subject strives to give a holistic view to prepare you for all other aspects of ICT and the careers that make use of it.
