Let’s Analyze

Activity 4. In this part, you are once again required to elaborate your
answer thoroughly on the questions below:

1. How is technology a mode of revealing?

First, technology's core is not something we create; rather, it is a way of being
or of being revealed. This implies that technical objects have a distinctive
existence, durability, and relationships between parts and wholes. They
present themselves and the world in which they live in uniquely.

2. Why should technology be questioned?

Therefore, questioning technology is meant to help us escape its bonds and
achieve freedom—not by doing away with it altogether, but rather by gaining a
deeper comprehension of its purpose and meaning.

Explain why Heidegger manifest the calculative thinking towards meditative

thinking?
Heidegger encourages us to think meditatively rather than merely analytically.
He argues that this is a forgotten ability that is urgently required in a society
where technology is so pervasive that humanness and meaning are sacrificed
to pragmatism.

Describe technology as a means to an end, and technology is a human

activity.
The two descriptions of technology go hand in hand. Because it is a human
activity to propose aims and obtain and use the tools to achieve them.
Technology encompasses all activities related to the creation and use of
machinery, tools, and equipment as well as the demands and purposes for
which they are utilized.
