Hamza, Emeka, Funsho, Fejiro and Idongesit were friends from secondary school. Now, Hamza is a pilot, Emeka is a businessman, Funsho is banker, Fejiro is a ...

This question tests the application of ICT in different professions. For each friend, state two realistic ICT applications in that specific job.

• Hamza (pilot): uses ICT for computerised flight-navigation and autopilot systems, and for flight simulators used in training; also for radio/radar communication with air-traffic control.
• Emeka (businessman): uses ICT for e-commerce (online buying and selling) and for keeping accounts and records with spreadsheets and databases; also for e-mail and online marketing.
• Funsho (banker): uses ICT for electronic banking such as ATMs and online transfers, and for maintaining customer accounts on a database; also for processing transactions securely.
• Fejiro (manufacturer): uses ICT for computer-controlled/automated production machinery (CAM and robotics) and for computer-aided design (CAD) of products; also for inventory and production control.
• Idongesit (teacher): uses ICT for e-learning and preparing lessons/presentations, and for computer-based setting, marking and record-keeping of results; also for online research.

Examination reminder: tie each ICT use to the actual duties of the profession named; a general answer such as "sends email" earns less than a job-specific one such as "a pilot uses computerised navigation systems".
