Situation: An Indian couple whose husband aged 80 and his wife 72 year old
delivered a healthy normal child

Direction. Using and following scientific method, how did this couple bear a
child?

They applied or used the IVF which means In Vitro Fertilization that’s why the
couple bear a child from the age of 80 and 72. After the failed process they got
successfully pregnant on the third trial. Because in IVF or In Vitro Fertilization the
woman’s egg fertilized with a man's sperm outside the body.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is the joining of a woman's egg and a man's sperm in a
laboratory dish. In vitro means outside the body. Fertilization means the sperm
has attached to and entered the egg.
The couple pray and believe that God give the child they want and pray for. They
don’t lose hope and continue on believing that someday it will come true.

Brainstorming. Determine the possible alternatives to growth and development. List

down several ways to promote sustainable living and start a mini-campaign advocating
the methods of your choice.

It all start from ourselves to be a responsible person on earth. Several ways to promote
a sustainable living.
1. Proper throwing of garbage, we all know that plastic may kills our environment, so by
simple putting your garbage in a trash bags or in a proper place it has a big impact to
lessen the garbage anywhere. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
2. Planting more tree’s like in our organizations, we the scholars/KKDAT from Pilar
chapter together with the PNP implement a Tree planting campaigns, it has a big
contribution like produce fresh air, prevent flooding and landslides.
3. Be a member of community garden, planting vegetables in your backyard.
4. Start using natural than chemical.
5. Start reading books and playing outdoors activities. Mostly children nowadays are
addicted to gadgets, social media eyes are more exposed to brightness by doing
outdoor activities you become physical and mentality healthy.
6. Donate unused items to the mostly needed.
7. Take shorter showers, shut off water during brushing, add a brick to your toilet tank.
8. Be a volunteer and cooperate in the activities of your community.

State the contributions of the following terms below in the scientific development.

1. Telescope - These instruments helped us make the first valid measurement of the
speed of light. Telescopes have also helped us understand gravity and other
fundamental laws of the physical world. Telescopes have also helped us understand
the light that radiates from the sun and other stars.

2. Radio - Radio technology is a useful channel through which people communicate.

Messages sent through invisible airwaves inform, persuade and entertain. Radio
connects individuals across geographical, cultural, and even political divides.

3. Microscope - The microscope is a device that magnifies objects or organisms that

are too small to see with the naked eye. A milestone in the science world, the
microscope has had enormous influence on the development of modern medical,
forensics and environmental science. The invention of the microscope has
revolutionized the science industry while developing other fields.

4. Cell phones - Cell phones have become a necessity for many people throughout the
world. The ability to keep in touch with family, business associates, and access to
email are only a few of the reasons for the increasing importance of cell phones.
Today's technically advanced cell phones are capable of not only receiving and
placing phone calls, but storing data, taking pictures, and can even be used as
talkies, to name just a few of the available options.

5. Processed food - Food processing is the alteration of foods from the state in which
they are harvested or raised to better preserve them and feed consumers. As the
2007 World Food Prize Laureate Philip E Nelson said, “If you teach a person how to
process food, you can feed a village.” Food processing was probably the first
“technology” that was sufficiently successful such that it led to a segregation of
societies into discrete artisan industries.

6. Internet - Internet use can improve learners’ academic performance, promote

research skills and critical thinking, encourage independent or collaborative
learning, enhance motivation, strengthen self-confidence and improve the teaching
methods. Much as their as limitations like accessibility, power shortages,
educational, misleading information on the Internet, and many others. For science
communication, Internet has become an effective scientific communication media,
and plays a great role in communication. But at the same time, the spread
characteristics of Internet itself also can produce some negative effects during the
communication process.

7. Gravity - Gravity, also called gravitation, in mechanics, the universal force of

attraction acting between all matter. It is by far the weakest known force in nature
and thus plays no role in determining the internal properties of everyday matter. On
the other hand, through its long reach and universal action, it controls the
trajectories of bodies in the solar system and elsewhere in the universe and the
structures and evolution of stars, galaxies, and the whole cosmos. The launch of
space vehicles and developments of research from them have led to great

GE-6 STS template 2nd sem., 2020-2021 BSHM/BSEntrep

 3

improvements in measurements of gravity around Earth, other planets, and the

Moon and in experiments on the nature of gravitation.

8. Television - Television is one of our most important means of communication. It

brings moving pictures and sounds from around the world into millions of people's
homes. The utter amount of time that TV occupies in people's lives has it's affects
on culture as well as culture has on it. Television is probably the largest single
common contributor to young and most other people’s ideas about life-goals and
vocations. This pilot project will take the first major step toward ascertaining
television's contributions to ideas about science, technology, innovation, and the
people associated with these endeavors.

9. Computer - Computers are probably the biggest advance in scientific technology.

They allow us to analyze huge data sets and run statistical analyses far quicker than
in the past. Scientists also use them to run simulations and build electronic models.
Computers make people’s lives easier and more comfortable: they provide
opportunities for staying in touch to billions of people who may very well be in
different parts of the world. Today people can drive computerized cars and work for
employers from other countries without even seeing them.

10. Guns - One of the contributions of guns to our scientific development is that from the
early years of gunpowder warfare through to the current age, gun designers and
artillerymen were often schooled in ballistics, geometry, calculus, and other
mathematics disciplines which spread this knowledge to a far wider group of people
than would have been likely without guns.

HUMAN FLOURISHING
Ventilation Paper No. 6

I. After reading the article, answer the following questions on the spaces provided.
1. What is the main objective of the Sustainable Development Goals of the United
Nations?
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs, also known as the
Global Goals) are 17 goals with 169 targets that all UN Member States have agreed to
work towards achieving by the year 2030. They set out a vision for a world free from
poverty, hunger and disease, eradicate poverty. Health has a central place in SDG 3
“Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages”, underpinned by 13
targets that cover a wide spectrum of WHO’s work. The SDGs aim to be relevant to all
countries – poor, rich and middle-income – to promote prosperity while protecting the
environment and tackling climate change. They have a strong focus on improving equity
to meet the needs of women, children and disadvantaged populations in particular so
that “no one is left behind”.

2. What is the standardized unit that measures resource use and waste?
Global Hectare (GHA) is the standardized unit that measures both the bio capacity of
the earth and the demand on biocapacity or ecological footprint. This would become the
basis in order to control and give balance on the consumption and waste of humans
with the natural resources. 

3. What is the standard response to eradicating poverty?

To signs the UN’s new sustainable development goals (SDGs) are about to offer the
fresh plan for how to save the world and the Growth- had become the main object of
progress for over 70 years but apparently, it was not able to minimize the number of
families and people living in poverty. Give the residence of the country a good work and
play attention for the family who have mostly needed.

4. What is the threshold of the Earth for adequately sustaining life?

The threshold of the Earth for adequately sustaining life is 1.9 global hectares annually.
Even with such amount of $6,000 and consumption, people and individuals can still
achieve life expectancy and happiness.  

GE-6 STS template 2nd sem., 2020-2021 BSHM/BSEntrep

 5

5. According to the majority of people in middle-and high income countries, what puts
the planet and society at risk?
Overconsumption is what puts our planet and society at risk. Overconsumption brings
imbalance to our planet; it destroys and exhausts the life support system of earth and
thus, leading our lives at risk as well as putting our wellbeing at a critical state.

6. How much hectares should each of us consume annually based on the resources
available in the planet?
Each of us should consume a 1.8 global hectares annually as what is rested upon the
available resources on our planet. This is the margin by which determines the adequate
resources for each individual who resides on our planet to consume.

7. What are two indicators of the quality of life given in the article?
The two indicators of a quality life were life expectancy and happiness. These determine
that, even with an enough amount of resources to consume, we can still have the sense
of satisfaction and quality of our lives. 

8. What crisis in the planet would force us to slow down if we do not do so voluntarily?
Climate change would become as a crisis that would stop us humans from
overconsumption of our natural resources. We cannot shun the fact about the laws of
nature; nature would still find its way to stop us from destroying it. Thus, if all of us
would not wake up and voluntarily slow down our consumption then, we should be
prepared for the consequences of our actions. 

9. According to Hickel, what must be done instead of urging poor countries to “catch
up” with rich ones?
De-development or to “Catch Down” is what Dr. Jason Hickel encourage and urges all
of us especially those who live in highly developed countries in order for less developed
ones to keep pace with the drastic growth and changes that is happening around the
world. 

10. How would the different areas if the world react to the idea of the “de-
development”?
I believe that there would be conflicting reactions from various parts of the world
when it comes to the idea of the de-development. Those who live in rich and well-
developed countries would have a hard time accepting such change and method of
promoting development and progress. On the other hand, it would become favorable for
those in less fortunate countries in promulgating such plan as anchored with the
objective of development. But despite of such dispute, I still believe that, with enough
information to be disseminated and that would make people to better understand its
advantages to all of us, our world, and especially our nature then, we can still find the
way to live by and accept the idea of de-development. After all, we could still improve
our lives and integrate quality to it even though we reduce and lessen our consumption.

Direction: Make a composition from the given topic “The Essence of Technology”.

THE ESSENCE OF TECHNOLOGY

Ventilation Paper No. 7

Essence of Technology Technology is a broad term that refers both to artifacts

created by humans, such as machines, and the methods used to create those artifacts.
Technology is also often used as the generic term to encompass all the technologies
people develop and use in their lives. More broadly, technology can be used to refer to
a way of doing something or a means of organization: for instance, democracy might be
considered a social technology. When the word “technology” is used today, it is most
often used to refer to high technology – computers, cell phones, rockets – rather than
technology in general. Technology involves the purposeful application of knowledge,
experience and resources to create processes and products that meet human needs.
The needs and wants of people in particular communities determine the technology that
is developed and how it is applied. People judge the desirability of technological
applications by their impact on health, personal well- being and lifestyle, economies and
ecosystems. We Pinoy’s are very fond of adopting changes, what if those changes or
new things replace the love that binds our family, the happiness that we found when we
share moments with our love ones. I believe that the time will come that we humans are
being useless because were too dependent to technology. I hope not. It's never too late
to see our mistakes and make a change.
Modern technology has solved many problems that people face and play an
important role in the development of many countries. Modern technologies create many
kinds of products - computers, cloning technology, and video games etc.. Technology
today has made life better and quicker In our modern society, people can't see
themselves without computers, cell phones, voice mail...etc... As we look at
technologies, questions are risen. The Technological progress make our society more
convenient and safe. Making impossible things possible are similar features of the
change which previous people have experienced by social change, like shifting from a
hunting society to an agricultural society and establishing a commercial society due to
the invention of new tools. To consider these advantages and change of society,
modern technology, which we use today, might be not only a new tool but also the tool,

GE-6 STS template 2nd sem., 2020-2021 BSHM/BSEntrep

 7

which makes a dramatic change in history. However, the contribution of modern

technology to society should not be eliminated and should be distributed evenly.
There're many people that can't see themselves without the new tools that's because
the technology recreates the essence of humanity and it encourages us to think of all
things in the world as standing by, ready for our consumption. So this definitely affects
our perception of the natural world. Nowadays we create technology, but technology
also creates us. Technology comes from necessity. You have a problem to solve so you
invent the solution. You must use technology or innovation to solve it. So trial and error
until you succeed. Most technology is to defer labor. This also points to an important
issue. Capitalism increases the need for employment. Technology reduces the available
jobs. This is an un sustainable condition. In a socialist environment technology could
flourish. In a capitalist society money is the barrier to all technology.

From accessing massive amounts of information on the internet to simply experiencing

an enriched personal lifestyle, technology continues to benefit us day in, day out. It is
undoubtedly true that technology is an important part of our daily lives.
Nowadays, most people have computers, laptops, tablets and even smartphones.
These devices have made communication easier. Nowadays, you can browse the
internet from anywhere, anytime. These devices have made life more enjoyable. There
are many ways through which technology has made life easier. They include:
1.It has made communication easier.
2. Advertising has been made easier.
3. Travel industry has seen a huge change.
4. Easily locate lost items.
5. It has made learning easier.
6. It has made data saving and retrieval easier.

THE GOOD LIFE

Ventilation Paper No. 8

Answer the questions below in the space provided.

1. When can you consider life is “good”?
Living the good life means living a life that sets you free. A life that satisfies and fulfills
you, that adds happiness, joy and a sense of purpose to your life. But it also means to
live a life that is worthwhile – a life that makes a contribution, instead of being solely
self-centered. The good life is a life that is not primarily wasted with mundane activities.
Instead, it adds value and contributes to making this world a better place. Even more so,
it also contributes to your own growth. The attainment of a high standard of living alone
might not be fully fulfilling and will definitely not set you free. Therefore, the good life
combines aspects of exploration, self-mastery and civic responsibility with the endeavor
to spend your time in a worthwhile manner that both satisfies and fulfills. It is only
through the combination of these aspects that a joyous and happy life can be truly
considered the good life.

2. What is the relationship between the good life and science?

Science and the good life are interdependent, and they affect each other just like the
concept of cause and effect. Science and its researches and invention have a great
impact on human life, precisely the good life. And it is the pursuit of a good life that fuels
the passion for scientific development in the world. Hence, both of them can be used as
cause and effect alternatively according to a specific situation; for example, paracetamol
is a scientific invention that influences our life in terms of good health.

3. Does technology always lead us to the good life? How and why?
I personally believe that technology is a tool to build a good life. But, is technology
always leads us to good life? Technology leads us to a good life and the same time it
doesn’t lead us to a good life either. It depends on how we define a good life.
Technology can affect us if we misuse it. So, balance between technology and
human labour is essential, technology never should overpower humans. There’s a
advantage and disadvantage in using technology.

THE GOOD LIFE

Ventilation Paper No. 9

Answer the questions below.

1. In your opinion, what constitutes a good life?
Good life is satisfaction. Being comfortable with the environment you are in and being
happy with the things you have. Good life is being with people who bring joy and
happiness to every second of your life. It is being with people who give meaning to life.
Happiness also constitutes good life. To attain good life we must be able to understand
things better. We should be more particular with the understanding of how life works
more than having an eye on what life offers. A good and happy life is not about attaining
material things but earning worthy life lessons and happy memorable stories. We must
be responsible and learn how to appreciate good things than all the negativities in life.

2. What does Aristotle say about the good life? Does it still stand in the contemporary
world?
According to Aristotle, that having a happiness and good life is about virtue. According
to him, having a prosperity which can be accomplished by living a life according to virtue
is achieved by continually living in various manners or living with high morals. It is still
stands in the contemporary world? Definitely yes because people nowadays looking for
the materials that fit their satisfaction rather than gaining some experiences that
gradually help themselves to sustain their level of morality and goodness.

3. How is the progress of science and technology a movement towards the good life?
The role of technology is huge in the contemporary world because we’ve known that
we are in the modern world that barely needs technology to sustain our daily needs but
it can be included that technology helps us to shape our world and improving our way in
daily lives. Because of the technology we have a good life because it makes our lives
easier than before.

WHEN TECHNOLOGY AND HUMANITY CROSS

Ventilation Paper No. 10

Answer or discuss the questions state below.

1. Do people really need technology in their lives? Is it really a necessity?
Technology is now a necessity in terms of every day life, from education to
navigating around a city. We no longer communicate with the outside world and ask for
directions, instead we look inwardly and we ask Siri. As technology improves we rely
more and more on our smartphones, so much so we are becoming lazy in every way.
Spelling is becoming worse, for example, we no longer need to think for ourselves when
we have a spellchecker at our finger tips, we can ask Siri to perform calculations for us
or ask Siri to ask Google to solve any problems we may encounter. We heavily rely on
our phones for every day tasks, such as checking train times, finding locations and even
just to check the time, technology is slowly overtaking our lives and we are falling into
lazy habits to let it.

2. How do you reconcile the “need” for technology and the dilemma/s it faces?
The best way to reconcile the need for technology and the dilemmas it faces right
now particularly in ethical issues is intensive literacy or education. We can enumerate a
lot of dilemmas which technology is facing right now. I want to focus on one because I
believe these dilemmas should be addressed separately.  Perhaps the one of the
greatest dilemma that technology is facing right now is the ethical issues like copyright
infringement, violation in intellectual property rights, computer crimes such as cyber
bullying, phishing, scamming and the likes.

3.Should there be an ethics of technology? Why? Explain.

Yes, the ethics of technology will in one way or another guide people on how
technology ought to be used in order to prevent abuse and other unfortunate results.
The ethics of responsibility is an appropriate theory that can be used in dealing with
technology. Technology ethics are principles that can be used to
govern technology including factors like risk management and individual rights. They
are basically used to understand and resolve moral issues that have to do
with the development and application of technology of different types.
