WHEN TECHNOLOGY AND HUMANITY CROSS ACTIVITY

1. From the graphic organizer you completed from your assignment, choose one
technology in each category and give their risks and benefits as regards to their
purpose. Explain briefly each point you included.

Technology Benefits Risks

Transportation - It’s good for exercise - Many accidents are

specially for cardio. numbered every day
because of cycling.
- Saves money from
transportation fee - You are exposed to
and gas. heat and rain
specially in
- Fastest way of public commuting.

it comes to traffic. - Chased or bitten by
dogs on the streets.
- Good for the
environment due to
no emission of
smoke.

- No need for Driver’s

license.

Communication - A very convenient - Not all task can be

2. “My Ideal Technology”. Think of an issue (be it environmental, economic, transportation, etc.), and
come up with a technology that would somehow address the issue. Give a description of the
features of your technology. What are its benefits and drawbacks to the society?

Issue:

All of us has are using gadgets like cellphone, laptop and computer in our daily in which we always
tend to focus on them and some of us don’t even care on the harmful effect that this gadget give like
radiation.

Invention:

So my technology that I have in mind is a small chip that acts like an anti-radiation that sticks
outside of your phone and on the monitor of your laptop or computer that helps to block and absorb
the radiation that the gadget emits towards you.

Features:

*Micro sim size chip

* Can be installed in or outside the gadget just paste in like a sticker

Benefits:

- It helps to protect you in against radiation with no need to buy anti-radiation glasses
- Absorbs the heat of the phone in extensive use specially when the temperature rise
- Small, durable and long lasting until your phone break

Draw backs to the society:

- Because of its tiny size it will easily get lost

- It might be swallowed by a child if not properly kept.

3. Reflection: What do you think will happen if human person did not flourish in terms
of science and technology? (In your own reflection, DO NOT COPY-PASTE!)

When it comes to technology we always used them in our daily task every day and it
makes our life easier. But when we stop thinking or inventing such things and tend
to be stable, our survival of life will not be the same as we are right now, maybe
there will be a lack of medicine or no medicine at all because we didn’t invent them
and also the machines used to make a quantity amount of medicine. Maybe we have
no cellphones or computer right now if we didn’t flourish in technology. We may be
still be living in the year 1700 or 1800s style if we became stagnant and contented
on our technology right now specially on the invention of communication. Many of
the technological products right now will not be possible if the people years ago
didn’t dream, invent and flourish the technology they have, and the result will might
affect the present and future generation, possibly our way of life will still be the
same as there’s. The way of living without the modern technology we have is like
living on a primitive or medieval way of life. That’s why people always dream,
invent and innovate new technology and create medicine for the different kinds of
disease to continue the human race of survival here on earth.
