I. Intended Learning Outcomes
At the end of the discussion, the students shall be
able to:
1. Determine whats Technology
2. Indentify whats Globalization
3. Evaluate the relationship between Globalization
and Technology
II. Content (International Bases)
Globalization and the Technology
- Can be define as the increasing speed of technological
diffusion across the global economy. It refers to the
spread of technologies around the globe, and particularly
from developed to developing nations.
A. Key Concept
- Increasing speed of technological diffusion
- Spread of technologies
- Developed to developing nations
II. Content (International Bases)
Globalization and the Technology
- Technology facilitates globalization while makes
technology more valuable. The process of globalization is
closely linked to technology innovation.
A. Key Concept
- Technology facilitates globalization
- Technology innovation
II. Content
- National Bases Not Available
- Local Bases Not Available

Strategy)

B. Connection to Industrial Technology Course
● Globalization has had a significant impact on technology in the
industrial technology course. The increasing interconnectedness and
integration of economies and cultures worldwide have facilitated the
rapid development and dissemination of technology.
 What I know
Technology has been a key
driver of globalization,
enabling the rapid exchange
of information and the
integration of markets
worldwide. The rise of the
internet, mobile devices, and
other digital technologies has
revolutionized global
communications. People now
have instant access to
information, can connect with
others across the globe
through social media
platforms, and collaborate in
real-time with colleagues
located anywhere.
What I want to know
Whats the positive and
negative effects of
globalization in technology?
Whats the relationship of
globalization in technology?
What I learned
I learned that globalization
has driven technological
advancements in
manufacturing processes.
Industrial technology
students learn about
advanced technologies like
robotics, automation, and
additive manufacturing,
which have revolutionized
production systems across
the globe. These
technologies enable efficient
and cost-effective production,
allowing companies to
compete in the global
marketplace.
Globalization boosts technological development

• First, globalization allows countries to gain easier access

to foreign knowledge.
Key Concept
● Easier access to foreign knowledge
Globalization boosts technological development
● Second, it enhances international competition—including
as a result of the rise of emerging market firms—and this
strengthens firms' incentives to innovate and adopt foreign
technologies.
● Key Concept
● Emerging market firms
● Incentives and innovate
● Adopt foreign technologies
III. Review of Related Literature (Int. Bases)
● (Archibugi & Pietrobelli, 2003). Globalization offers a new
opportunity to disseminate information, but that does not
guarantee that all nations and organizations can benefit.
Developing countries are not specifically exempt.
● Straub (2009) noticed, technology adoption is a complex
social and developmental process dependent on
individual construct. Globalization improves technology
adoption through the transfer of foreign knowledge,
enhancing international competition.
● (Huggins, Prokop & Thompson, 2020). Globalization-induced innovation
appears to be more product-oriented than process-oriented. Technology and
knowledge spillover effects are higher in high- and middle-income to low-
income countries.
● Ejiaku (2014) analyzed the challenges associated with the adoption of
information technology in developing nations. Poor government policies,
inadequate infrastructure, and inadequate training and qualifications contribute
to the creation of challenges in transferring and adopting information
technology.
● Oleschewski, Renken and Mueller (2018) examined technology readiness and
social influence in the acceptance of collaboration technologies. The authors
examined the impact of these factors on the adoption of technology and their
re-orientation beyond traditional adoption research, which focused on the initial
acceptance of the technology. They noted that social influence is a dominant
factor in the context of personal acceptance of collaboration technologies,
surpassing technological readiness and traditional adoption measures.
IV. Definition of Terms
• Technological globalization- refers to the spread of
technologies around the globe, and particularly from developed to
developing nations.
• Technological diffusion- the process by
which innovations (be they new products, new processes or new
management methods) spread within and across economies.
• Economic Globalization- refers to the increasing
interdependence of world economies as a result of the growing
scale of cross-border trade of commodities and services, flow of
international capital and wide and rapid spread of technologies.
● Cultural Globalization - Process whereby particular
cultures, meanings, ideas, values, and experiences are
disseminated throughout the world through a variety of means,
major among which include trans-border movements of people,
popular culture media, and international communication.

● Social Globalization- refers to the sharing of ideas and

information between and through different countries. In today's
world, the Internet and social media is at the heart of this. Good
examples of social globalisation could include internationally
popular films, books and TV series.
V. My point of view
a.My own idea
The impact of techology in globalization it has
made easier than ever to connect with people all
over the world. With the rise of social media and
messaging apps, give the free and easy to do it.
