Use of Science &


Technology
Presented by:

Lesson objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the
students will be able to:
1. Discuss the Advantages and
Disadvantages of Technology in
Human lives .
2. Explain the man’s limitation in
the use of Science and
Technology.
What is Science and
technology
Science encompasses the
systematic study of the structure
and behavior of the physical and
natural world through
observation and experiment, and
technology is the application of
scientific knowledge for practical
purposes. Anything man made
you see around you are
examples of science, technology
Why is it important to know the
limitations of technology?
Knowledge of technological
limitations helps stakeholders know
the risks of investing in a particular
technology. In addition, buyers with
such knowledge can avoid societal
discrimination by avoiding
technology with ethical limitations.
Lastly, any inventor knows the risks
of inventing specific technology on
finances.
Advantages and Disadvantages
of use of science and
technology

The use of technology has brought


about significant changes in
various aspects of our lives, both
positive and negative.
Here are some advantages and
disadvantages of using technology:

Technology
is not something new in
generation or past generations.
Although the term was coined
relatively recently, generations of
humans long ago had the technology,
too. Technology is the practical use of
scientific knowledge for a specific
purpose. Any knowledge obtained,
tested, and shown to be a fact is
scientific knowledge.
Limitations of
Technology
.Humanity relies more on technology than
ever before, and new technology is
developed daily. Nonetheless, there are
certain limitations to the technology. The
three main limitations . are economic, ethical,
and natural limits. Some of these limitations
result from how people think or government
restrictions.
Science has limits:
A few things that
science does not do
Science is powerful. It has generated the
.

knowledge that allows us to call a friend


halfway around the world with a cell phone,
vaccinate people against
.
polio, build a
skyscraper, and drive a car.
Science has limits: A
few things that science
does not do
Science helps us answer important questions
like which areas might be hit by a tsunami
after an earthquake, how the hole in the
ozone layer formed, how we can protect our
crops from pests, and. who our evolutionary
ancestors were. With such breadth, the reach
of science might seem to be endless, but it is
not. Science has definite limits.
Science doesn’t make
moral judgments
Science can help us learn about the
contexts that help humans flourish
and which of our cognitive
capabilities are shared by non-human
animals. That knowledge can inform
our opinions and decisions. But
ultimately, individual
people must make moral judgments.
Science doesn’t make
Aesthetic Judgements
Science can reveal the frequency of
a G-flat and how our eyes relay
information about color to our
brains, but science cannot tell us
whether a Beethoven symphony, a
Kabuki performance, or a Jackson
Pollock painting is beautiful or
dreadful. Individuals make those
decisions for themselves based on
their own aesthetic criteria.
Science doesn’t tell you how to
use scientific knowledge
Although scientists often care deeply
about how their discoveries are used,
science itself doesn’t indicate what
should be done with scientific
knowledge. Science, for example, can
tell you how to recombine DNA in new
ways, but it doesn’t specify whether you
should use that knowledge to correct a
genetic disease, develop a bruise-
resistant apple, or construct a new
Science doesn’t draw conclusions
about supernatural explanation
Do gods exist? Do supernatural entities
intervene in human affairs? These
questions may be important, but science
won’t help you answer them. Questions
that deal with supernatural explanations
are, by definition, beyond the realm of
nature — and hence, also beyond the
realm of what can be studied by
science. For many, such questions are
matters of personal faith and spirituality.
