As far as Scientific Knowledge, Science and Technology is hard to define, everyone has their own way of defining Science and Technology. Based on the book that we use in UP Open University, Science, Technology and Society by Antonio Contreras, one way of describing Science and Technology is thru requiring a historical perspective in 2 aspects:
- Technology's contribution to the development of humankind
- Technological advancement
As technology advances, it has also given breakdowns to some social institutions.
First, It is important to know the difference of Science and Technology.
Generally, Science is a body of knowledge such a verifiable concepts, theories, laws and principles. While Technology refers to machines, tools, designs and processes used by human beings.
Try to recall the technology before and compare it in today's new technology ? What do you notice?
