Communication is something that is very important in life. This is something that we often do in our daily lives. Communication is usually done by talking either directly or through certain media, such as through letters, telephone calls, video calls, and so forth. Some of these things are tangible forms of communication that we often do.
Not only that, communication can also be done in the form of certain cues, such as: winking, nodding, and also shaking his head. Communication has a very important role in human life, both individually, in groups, as well as in organizations, including in international or international relations.
"Communication originates from the Latin word communis which means to make togetherness or build togetherness between two or more people. Communication also comes from the Latin communico which means to share". Cherry in the book Prof. Dr.H.Hafied cangaa, M.Sc.
In the context of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) or ICT (Information and Communication Technology) Information technology and communication technology are two inseparable concepts. But if the two types of technology are separated, they have different definitions. Then it can be defined that information technology includes all matters relating to the process, use as a tool, manipulation, and management of information. While communication technology is everything related to the use of tools to process and transfer data from one device to another.
Information technology is developing rapidly with the development of computers with supporting devices and the development of existing communication technology. Communication technology is developing fast with the increasing development of electronic technology, transmission systems and modulation systems, so that information can be conveyed quickly and accurately.
Communication technology is hardware equipment in an organizational structure that contains social values, which allows each individual to collect, process, and exchange information with other individuals. That way, each individual can search for information or data needed with communication technology.
In this rapidly advancing era, there are so many kinds of devices or tools that can be used as communication. Many Communication Technologies are developing quickly with the support of existing technology. There are so many examples of communication media that play a role in human life, such as the internet, cellphones and gadgets such as smartphones and so on.
Underlying things that can be classified into communication technology are:
1. Communication technology can be implemented in a tool
2. Communication technology is born by a social, economic and political structure
3. Communication technology carries values derived from certain economic, social and political structures
4. Communication technology increases the ability of the human senses especially the ability to hear and see.
