TECHNOLOGY

Technology is the application of scientific knowledge to the practical aims of human

life or, as it is sometimes phrased, to the change and manipulation of the human
environment.

Technology is the application of knowledge to reach practical goals in a specifiable

and reproducible way. The word technology may also mean the product of such an
endeavor. The use of technology is widely prevalent in medicine, science, industry,
communication, transportation, and daily life.

Machines that move are mechanical technology. Medical technology is another

type, and includes ventilators, medication, and MRIs. Communication technology is
the third type, and includes all types of tools used to communicate, from telegrams to
telephones.

The purpose of technology is to enable the effective sharing of data to address some
of society's biggest challenges and help individuals and organizations be
more innovative, efficient, and productive.

The first major technologies were tied to survival, hunting, and food preparation.
Stone tools and weapons, fire, and clothing were technological developments of major

Search engines and e-books are partially replacing traditional textbooks. Instead of
personal tutors, students can get one-on-one help through educational videos –
anytime and anywhere

Despite the challenges and concerns, it's important to note the benefits of technology
in education, including increased collaboration and communication, improved quality
of education, and engaging lessons that help spark imagination and a search for
knowledge in students.
