Presentation transcript:

 Chapter 1, Section 3

 Technology: how people change the world around them to meet their needs or to solve problems.  What are some examples of technology?  In addition to things people make, can be the knowledge and processes needed to produce such objects.

 What is the purpose of technology? o To improve the way people live.  What are some examples of the way that technology has improved peoples lives? o Ex: medicine to improve health, glasses to see, the internet to gain information

 People who develop or create technology are called engineers.  Engineers: use both technological and scientific knowledge to solve problems  Science: the study of the natural world  Technology: changes or modifies the natural world to meet human needs or to solve problems

 How would a scientist vs. an engineer study wind? o A scientist would talk about the sun and weather creating wind; an engineer would talk about how to harness wind to create electricity.

 From the Stone Age, thousands of years ago, to the Information Age today, technology has impacted society, changing the way people live. o Ex: Stone Age Ex: use stones to make tools, spears helped people to hunt for food and grow crops. o Ex: Information age Ex: internet, cell phones, TV allows people to get information very quickly.
