Science Breakthrough II

Science and Technology

INTRODUCTION

A scientific breakthrough is an euphoric moment that

reveals an idea or even an accidental answer to a need or

problem.

Many scientific breakthroughs were developed into

technologies that helped improve the quality of life by giving

us cures for diseases, increasing food production, improving

procedure for solving crimes, and developing machines that

do work more efficiently.

Some scientific breakthroughs were discovered

accidentally and led to other breakthroughs, while others

were made through the perseverance of the scientists.

Gadgets are examples of these breakthroughs.

TECNOLOGY or SCIENCE

Technology is older than science.

When humans being fashioned to cope with

their environment. That was technology.

wine even before

the process of

fermentation was

known.

TECNOLOGY or SCIENCE

Before the science

and technology was

a separate fields.

Science belongs to

philosophers. And

technology belongs

to the tanners,

millers, and

silversmith.

Acient Technology

• The earliest known human artifacts are

roughly flaked stones used for chopping

and scraping, found primarily in eastern

Africa. Known as Oldowan tools, they date

from about 2.3 million years before

present, and serve to define the beginning

of the Stone Age.

Early Hunting and Gathering

Tools

An assortment of prehistoric

tools provides evidence of the

hunting and gathering methods

of early peoples. Slabs of bark

were often used to gather nuts

and berries and functioned as

crude dishes or bowls (top left).

Reproductions of fishing tackle

and arrows believed to have

been used around 8000 BC are

displayed on the lower left.

Recovered tools for digging

and cutting (right) are shown

with recreated wooden

handles. The heads of the

adzes are made from flint, as is

the fire-starter shown below

Ancient Technology

Early Agricultural Tools

Humans began farming

about 12,000 years

ago. The ability to

control their food supply

freed people from a

nomadic lifestyle, which

allowed for the

beginning of cities and

towns. These early

farming tools date from

about 6,000 BC.

The discovery of the Wheel

and Axle

Technology were developed

in ancient times for the

following purpose:

1. Hunting for food.

2. Agricultural development.

3. Protection and warfare.

4. Communication.

5. Transportation.

6. Infrastructure.

7. Medicine.

8. Rituals.

9. Cosmetology.

10.Survival.

Technology were developed

in modern times for the

following purpose:

1. Advance method of food processing.

2. Substitution for manual to mechanical works.

3. Warfare.

4. Communication and Information.

5. Transportation and exploration.

6. Civilization.

7. Advance Medicine.

8. Working and earning facilities.

9. Recreation.

10.Survival.

The application of

technology

• Through the

revolution of

science.

Technology has a

great role in

opening the

minds of the

people to new

other science.

The application of

technology

The nineteenth century

marked the beginning

of applied science.
