Definitely! ICT helped me when I research about my subjects

the internet works and how it will be used properly.

In terms of economics, ICT has saved companies a lot of resources (time and
money) with the kind of communication technology they use, nowadays. In a
similar way, we spend less because of ICT. As it normally costs us a peso to send a
\
text message or SMS, with the internet, we can send multiple messages and only
be charged by a fraction.
