ICT on Social Change

Social Change refers to any changes of the social order in the society.
Social Change may include social institutions, social behaviors, or social
relations. It can be done in any form of multi-media.

You can make social changes by campaigns. Campaigns are a work in

an organized and active way toward a particular goal; typically, a political or
social one. A campaign will help you promote and organize your project
properly.

Simplified ICT Project Process Overview:

1. Planning is the process of thinking about the activities required to

achieve a desired goal. It is the first and foremost activity to achieve desired
results. It involves the creation and maintenance of a plan, such as
psychological aspects that require conceptual skills. It involves the following
task:
a. Conceptualizing your project
b. Researching on available data about your topic
c. Setting deadlines and meetings
d. Assigning people to various tasks
e. Finding a web or blog host

3
 f. Creating a site map for tour website
g. Listing down all applications, that you need including web apps
h. Funding (If applicable)

Creating a Concept Paper

Before starting your project, your group should be able to do the

necessary paperwork. This allows experts to see if your project is doable over
the time frame that was given and if it is significant enough to be made into
reality.

A concept paper is a document used to convince a panel of potential

funders to help a product, program, or service to become a reality.

Consider the five elements of a concept paper:

1. Introduction refers to the mission and vision and a brief

introduction of your project.

2. Purpose – it refers to the reasons why this project is worth your group
and your sponsor’s time, effort, and money.

3. Description refers to the necessary information about the project. In

ICT, it involves the sites you are going to produce and the purpose of
each and how they work in unison.

4. Support contains the budget needed for the project. Some concept
papers do not specify any amount requested from the sponsor.

5. Contact information refers to the information on how the group can

be reach-out.
