What is technology?

1. Technology is all that stuff the human has developed to satisface their needs, and help the works of the usual life.

2. The laws of nature, prices, but I think anything can be made...(?)

3. "A body of knowledge that has been accumulated over time", "a process that generates knowledge about the natural world"

4. The important parts of technology are: to understand the "Why", to understand the "how", and seeks to shape the natural world to meet human needs and wants.

What's technology?

1)Technology is the new uses or thing that we can get of the modification of nature to our benefit.
2)They must consider what the inappropriate use of the technology can make and the economic limits they have.
3)they refer to the technology like "the study of the natural world" and "a body of knowledge".
4)One part of the technology is the natural world who's the root of every of any technological advance, other important part is the process-scientific and the the knowledge of engineering.
5)No , I dont think I'm a Technological Literacy , because my life is not around waht's the last movile -phone or what's the last and more popular gadget.

TECHNOLOGICAL LITERACY ACTIVITIES:

1-the technology could improve our society , for example there are machines that make possible to move things that the human beings would never can .
2-I think that the technology sometimes is good to people because it helps them to comunicate. for example, thanks to the technology I can talk whit a person who lives in another country or far whit my computer.



Jimena: sory my lateness , I had a problem in my computer , luckily I had it back in my house.

What is Technology?

1.Technology it’s the result of knowlege over time plus modification of nature that helps humans to progress in some aspects ( and go back in others) and to make their life more “easy” in some kind of ways.
2.Some factors are: the goverment regultions, the costs ,the reliability and the rules of sciencie..
3.The study of the natural World, the sciencie that helps us understand the “way” and “how” of natural World.
4.Technical skills and knowns about science and engineering.
5.I consider myself technology literate because I know how to handle some technological artefacts but I try not to be a technology-slave, it’s hard sometimes because technology seemed to have gained a very important part in ourlives, but I think we don’t have to be slaves or suffer the consecuentes of something that should help us to progress, not to go back.

So sorry for my lateness, Lucía.

What is technology

1) The technology is the science which study and make things to improve our life.
2) This science must consider the physical limits that are showed in the nature
3) The phrases that I found are this : “ the study of the natural World “ and “process-scientific”
4) Three important parts of the technology are:
process-scientific
the knowledge
engineering

what is technology?

1)Technology is the process by which humans modify nature to meet their needs and wants

2)Some limiting factors engineers must take into account are: Cost, reliability, safety, environmental impact, ease of use, available human and material resources, manufacturability, government regulations, laws, and even politics.

3)- A body of knowledge accumulated over the time - Understand the “why” and "how" of nature

4)Engineering, science, manufacturing expertise.

What is technology???

1) Technology is the process by which humans modify nature to meet their needs and wants.

2)Some limiting factors are cost, reliability, safety, environmental impact, ease of use, available human and material resources, manufacturability, government regulations, laws, and even politics

3)--A body of knowledge that has been accumulated over time
--Science aims to understand the "why" and "how" of nature

4) Computers, Science, engineering

What is technology?

1) Technology is the knowledge and processes used to create and to operate technological artifacts by which humans modify nature to meet their needs and wants.

2) Some limiting factors engineers must take into account are: Cost, reliability, safety, environmental impact, ease of use, available human and material resources, manufacturability, government regulations, laws, and even politics.


3) - A body of knowledge that has been accumulated over time.- A process-scientific inquiry-that generates knowledge about the natural world.

4) Computers and hardware, Health and safety and transports.

What is Technology & The Nature of Technology

What is Technology & Nature of Technology

What is Technology?
1) Development
2) Laws of gravity, engineering basics, technology related terms and Concepts, etc…
3) –A body of knowledge accumulated across time
4) -A process-scientific inquiry-that generates knowledge about the natural World
4. Science, engineering and imagination

The Nature of Technology
Para la mayor parte de los hombres, la tecnología fue el saber que los constructores, ingenieros, y todos los que usaban esos conocimientos pasaron de generación en generación, mejorando los diseños gradualmente y añadiendo nuevas técnicas y materiales. En los comienzos del siglo XX, la tecnología ya era una empresa a gran escala que dependía de grandes cantidades de conocimientos conceptuales y de actuación (para saber interpretar y usar la tecnología), demasiado para que una sola persona la domine en su integridad. Grandes organizaciones eran requeridas para el desarrollo, manufactura y operación de las nuevas tecnologías. Complejas redes de tecnología independiente fueron desarrolladas, por ejemplo, las variadas tecnologías aplicadas a los automotores. Estas incluían gasolina y extractoras de petroleo, estaciones de servicio y garages de reparación, fabricas de neumaticos, plantas de ensamblaje de automóviles, sistemas de rutas y muchas mas. El gobierno empezó a tener un rol protagónico en darle forma a la tecnología a traves de regulaciones y políticas.

1)Technology is the process by which humans modify nature to meet their needs and wants. Technology includes all of the infrastructure necessary for the design

2) Science-laws of nature-being, cost, environmental impact, ease of use, reliability.

3)A body of knowledge that has been accumulated over time

4) Engineering know-how, manufacturing expertise, and various technical skills -- are equally important part of technology.

The nature of technology

El significado de la palabra tecnologia evolucionó para reflejar estos cambios. En el siglo XIX, La tecnologia se referia simplemente al uso practico de artes para crear productos fisicos, todo desde ruedas de carreteras y ropa de algodon hasta telefonos y motores de vapour. En el siglo XX, el significado de la palabra fue expandido para incluir todo lo involucrado en satisfacer los materiales que el humano desea y necesita, de empresas y organizaciones que las manejan hasta conocimientos cientificos, conocimientos tecnicos y productos tecnologicos para ellos mismos.
