Information Processes and Technology (IPT) is the study of information systems and the processes and technology involved in them. IPT is also a subject offered to senior high school students in Australia in university entrance exams such as the HSC in New South Wales. It focuses on giving the student an understanding of information technology, information processes and the skills to create information systems and some basic programming skills. Some of the social and ethical issues of computer systems may also be included in the course of the subject. == New South Wales == In New South Wales, IPT is separated into the Preliminary (Year 11) and HSC (Year 12) courses. A prerequisite for the HSC Course is successful completion of the Preliminary Course. In June 2009 the course for 2010 and beyond was detailed in the NSW Board of Studies' HSC Information Processes and Technology Syllabus. IPT is one of the HSC courses which may be accelerated – students in some schools have the option of completing it in Year 10. Topics studied in the Preliminary Course are: * Introduction to Information Skills and Systems * Tools for Information Processes, (which includes Seven Information Processes: Collecting, Organising, Analysing, Storing and Retrieving, Transmitting and Receiving, Processing and Displaying). * Developing Information Systems In the HSC IPT core topics studied are: * Project Management * Information Systems and Databases * Communications The HSC (Year 12) component of IPT also involves a number of option topics, usually of which two are chosen (usually by the school or teacher). These include: * Transaction Processing Systems * Multimedia Systems * Automated Manufacturing Systems * Decision Support Systems Other computing based courses offered in the HSC include Software Design & Development and Information Technology. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Information Processes and Technology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
