What is Science?
Science came from the Latin word “Scientia” or knowledge

Science is defined as the observation, identification, description,

experimental investigation, and theoretical explanation of natural
phenomena.

2
 Everything is done with research
◦Science tries to discover facts and relationships which then
create theories to make it have sense

3
What is the Scientific Method?

 A process for experimentation that is used to explore observations and

answer questions
 Its goal is to better understand our complex world
 Ideas in form of theories and hypotheses are tested in the form of
empirical observations

What is Technology
• It is the sum of techniques, skills, methods, and processes used in the
production of goods or services or in the accomplishment of
objectives, such as scientific investigation.

• Technology can be the knowledge of techniques, processes, and the

like, or it can be embedded in machines to allow for operation without
detailed knowledge of their workings.

6
What is the relationship of
science and technology?

7
 The relationship is that science is the study of the
natural world by collecting data through a systematic
process called the scientific method. And technology is
where we apply science to create devices that can solve
problems and do tasks. Technology is literally the
application of science. So, it really is impossible to
separate the two.

ROLES AND
IMPORTANCE OF
SCEINCE AND
TECHNOLOGY

15
In National Development
- It is intimately connected with development because; they have
historical record of bringing advances that have led to healthier,
longer, wealthier and more productive lives and they are key
ingredients to solutions to the most serious poverty alleviation and
economic development challenges that we currently face and are
likely to face in the future.

16
In Societal Development
- Science and technology education will not only prepare the Youths
from all nation, for fulfilling career prospects, but also train their
minds to address social problems with scientific mind.
- Youths equipped with science and technology education are also
endowed with high employment opportunities. Many developed and
advanced countries did progress much because of their heavy
investments on science and technology.

17
In Poverty Alleviation
- Science and technology have been central in the progress made to
date in the fight against poverty and in stimulating economic growth.
- In most basic and critical areas of human need, science and
technology have made possible significant progress to date, and they
hold the best prospects for continued progress, particularly with
respect to agriculture, health, energy, water, and environmental
concerns.

18
In Health
- Science and technology provided the basis for the largest ever
aggregate improvements in human health.
- It will be unable to correctly identify public health needs and choose
cost-effective package of health service if they lack science and
technology capacity

19
In Education
- With the incorporation of technology into schools, the main purpose is
to change how teachers and students gather, access, analyze, present
and transmit information. This can democratize information in
classrooms as well as help differentiate instruction, particularly for
students with special needs.

20
In Affordable Energy
- Access to affordable energy is essential for people currently living
without electricity and is a pre-requisite for economic growth.
- Advancement and application of research is needed to find new
environmentally and socially sustainable technology that can meet the
energy needs of developing countries.

21
GOALS OF SCIENCE AND
TECHNOLOGY IN THE
DEVELOPMENT

22
- Advancement of gadgets, data, and technologies in terms of
communication.

- Development of chosen technologies to lead the mechanical

construction change.

- Development of innovations identified with assets, energy, and

nourishment for social and monetary stability.

23
- Development of innovation on nearby medical services, natural
assurance, and social data frameworks to improve the personal
satisfaction and social advantages.

- Fostering of inventive essential exploration to elevate logical

progression and to extend wellsprings of mechanical development.
