SCIENCE AND TECH!

But what does Science mean? And what does

Technology mean?

Are they the same?

Can you have one without the other?

Scienceis the study of why

natural things happen

the way they do!

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

Some times, it comes with a side effect not planned

But most times, it only gives us the results we

want

That solves a problem for people

Technology is applying information to solve problems.

The problems solved create the technology which will

E-x-t-e-n-d human capabilities.

B. What have others done already to solve a problem?

Applying information isUsing knowledge, both learned and researched

C. What is the end result that the inventor is trying to accomplish?

A. What is the cause of the problem?A think-tank or inventor has questions to guide the research

EXTENDING HUMAN CAPABILITIES

Not as hard as teaching a horse to skip rope

Our 5 Senses

Our five senses are the sense of sight, smell, sound,

taste and touch

Our ability to think, create, imagine and move

Human Capabilities are ?

Stretching human capabilities is technology

, and

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

Here’s a simple addition problem which will stretch our sense of taste!

Now, let’s add a little pig to the picture…

AND WE GET…

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…

Here come some examples

The sense of touch has the most examples of technology.

In this case, touch meansto hold and control.

Can you think of others?

Touch = hold or control think of any tool found in

an auto shop, wood shop, metal shop, around your

house, in your desk…

Technology which aids our memory or

ability to think.

Some examples of technology which extend 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
