Use Of Internet

The rapid growth and use of information and communication technology tools affect both private and business activities. In order to maintain their position, companies invest in their employees, especially in their lifelong training in the field of ICT skills development. This paper examines how companies from the Visegrad Four countries are prepared for employee training using ICT. The aim of the paper is to examine the extent to which companies in these countries provide training to develop or improve ICT skills, what is the level of digital skills in each country and what proportion of companies employ ICT specialists. At the end of the paper, a linear regression is performed to confirm or reject the positive relationship between the three variables – Human Capital, Use of Internet Services and data about enterprises that provide training in order to develop or upgrade the ICT skills of their employees. Data from Community survey on ICT usage in enterprises were collected from Eurostat. Data on the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI) were collected for comparative analysis. The results suggest that there is no positive relationship between ICT employee training and indicator Human Capital from the DESI index but there is positive relationship between ICT employee training and indicator Use of Internet Services.

Practical Implications

This paper studies whether and how information and communication technology (ICT) changes self-construal and cultural values in a developing country. Ethiopian children were given laptops in the context of an ICT for development scheme. We compared children who used laptops (n = 69) with a control group without laptops (n = 76) and a second control group of children whose laptop had broken down (n = 24). Results confirmed that after 1 year of laptop usage, the children’s self-concept had become more independent and children endorsed individualist values more strongly. Interestingly, the impact of laptop usage on cultural values was mediated by self-construal (moderated mediation). Importantly, modernization did not “crowd out” traditional culture: ICT usage was not associated with a reduction in traditional expressions (interdependent self-construal, collectivist values). Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Role Of Information

If we want to convert our rural population into knowledge driven, progressive, self sufficient, self reliant, sustainable society, the role of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT’s) cannot be ignored. Timely availability information is considered as most important factor in Indian agriculture. At present ICT is the technology of this millennium. Transferring the developed technology to all end users is time-consuming and tiresome task and is often not completed due to paucity of resources and lack of manpower. In India, agriculture and rural development has gained significantly from ICT due to its widespread extension and adoption. In this era of internet, ICT is committed to provide real, timely accurate authentic information to the farmers and rural peoples.
