Technology, and Society

A.  Can you express your agreement/disagreement to the following statements.  Write AGREE or
DISAGREE, then briefly explain your answer.  You may cite an specific example/s to
justify your answer.

1.  SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY have a dual interaction which means they influence each
other.

- Agree because both of them have a contribution to each other and that help both of
them to learn or discover new things, or improve. For example the scientists uses
technology or invention of other that helps them to make their work more easier and
also those new invention in help them to build that is also because of science.

2. SCIENCE is required in the development of technologies. In the same way, technology

is needed to advance SCIENCE.

- Disagree because science has given us technology, it isn't a guarantee that science
will always come from it. It's possible that science will retire at any point. In order to
prevent this mistake, we need to get rid of the idea that science will continue to
prosper while technology continues to flourish.

B. Write your idea/insight about the illustration below. Minimum - 5 sentences, maximum – 10
sentences.

Dual Interactions of Science and Technology with Society

- How we act changes as a result of our scientific understanding of how the world works.
Technology impacts our ability to behave. Society drives technical breakthroughs and
scientific investigation. Science informs us about the kind of technologies that we might
be able to develop and how we can develop them, whereas technology allows us to
perform more scientific study. The three realms are so tightly interwoven that it is often
impossible to break them apart. However, knowing how the three connect to one another
is critical since each one influences the destiny of the others.
