communication, and education learning process; lead to new discoveries and experiments; enhances capabilities and
provides opportunities that saved or improved the quality of life. Technology impacts the environment, people and the
society as a whole but the way society uses technology to achieve specific goals is what results to either a positive or
a negative impact of technology on society.
