But what does
Science mean?
And what does
Technology mean?
Are they the same?
Can you have one without the other?
Science
is the study of why
natural things
happen
the way they do!
Oceanography
Geology
Chemistry
Astronomy
Meteorology
Biology
Psychology
Zoology
Microbiology
Why
natural
things
happen the
way they
do!
Can you think
of some natural
things
happening
right now?
Technology
is a process
A step by
step process
That solves
a problem
for people
But most
times, it only
gives us the
results we
want
Some times,
it comes with
a side effect
not planned
Technology is applying information
to solve problems.
Applying information is
Using knowledge, both learned and researched
A. What have others done already to solve a problem?
B. What is the cause of the problem?
C. What is the end result that the inventor is
trying to accomplish?
The problems solved satisfy our needs and
wants, but for the most part
S-t-r-e-t-c-h human capabilities.
Not as hard as teaching a
horse to skip rope
Human Capabilities are ?
Our 5 Senses
Our ability to think, create, imagine
and move
Our five senses are the
sense of smell, sound, sight,
taste and touch
Touch means to hold
and control
Just a few
examples of
technology which
extend or stretch
our sense of sight
Sense of smell
Sense of sound, which includes hearing and speaking
Due to Technology’s
Problem Solving Process,
the following Math
problem is an example of
how technology stretches
the sense of taste
Now, let’s add a little pig to the picture…
Other
examples of
technology that
relates to our
sense of taste
But remember, the food isn’t
the technology. It is the
process of preparing, cooking,
creating and preserving that is
the technology. Here come a
few examples…
The sense of touch has the most
examples of technology.
In this case, touch means
to hold and control.
To begin, think of any tool found in an
auto shop, wood shop, metal shop,
around your house, in your desk…
Well, you get the picture. If not, here
come a few examples
Can you think of others?
Technology which
aids our memory or
ability to think.
Some examples of technology
which extends our ability to move
on land
Some examples of technology
which extends our ability to move
through the air, water and space.
In review, Science is natural.
Why natural things happen as they do
Technology is something
made by people to solve
problems
Solve problems
which will stretch
human
capabilities
