4. TECHNOLOGY
The Concept of Science and Technology in Human Civilization Life
Humans are essentially: applied science and technology, whether developed
consciously or unconsciously. The application of technology consciously
considering/taking into account various other sciences; economics,
social, political culture and religion. The application of Science and Technology is
applying engineering capabilities to bring about a

Examples of technology in daily life and its history:


History of television

In 1873, a scientist named James Clerk Maxwell predicted the existence of

Hallwachs discovered that some substances emit electrons when

Although several methods of converting light into electric current have been discovered,
However, these methods have been applied in the construction of television systems for quite a long time.
The main problem is that the generated current is weak and there is no method yet.

The triode vacuum tube was developed around 1920.

Technology
In general, technology can be defined as entities, objects, or even non-objects.
a thing created integrally through actions and thoughts for
reaching a certain value. In this usage, technology refers to tools and machines.
that can be used to solve real-world problems. It
is a term that encompasses many things, it can also include simple tools,
such as a crowbar or wooden spoon, or complicated machines, like a space station
space or particle accelerator. Tools and machines do not necessarily have to be tangible objects;
virtual technology, such as software and business methods, also includes
in this definition of technology.

The term "technology" is also used to refer to a set of techniques.


in this context, it is the current state of human knowledge about how
ways to combine sources in order to produce products that
desired, solving problems, meeting needs, or satisfying
desire; it includes technical methods, skills, processes, techniques, tools, and
raw material. When combined with other terms, such as 'medical technology' or
space technology, it refers to the state of knowledge, and devices
the discipline of each knowledge. "State-of-the-art technology" (technology
the latest, as well as the most advanced) refers to high technology that is available for
humanity in any realm.
Technology can be seen as an activity that shapes or changes
culture. In addition, technology is the application of mathematics, science, and various
you for the benefits of life as known today. A modern example
is the rise of communication technology, which reduces barriers to interaction
fellow human beings, and as a result, has helped give birth to sub-sub
new culture; the rise of a global digital culture based on
the development of the Internet and computers. Not all technologies improve
culture in a creative way; technology can also help simplify
political oppression and warfare through tools like pistols or rifles. As
a cultural activity, technology preys on knowledge and engineering, each of which
formalize several aspects of technological hard work.

Science, Engineering and Technology

exploiting natural phenomena in a practical context for humans, often
(but not always) using the results and techniques from science.

The History from the Middle Ages to the Present

Beginning in England in the 18th century, the Industrial Revolution was a period of discoveries.
new technologies, especially in the fields of agriculture, manufacturing,
mining, metallurgy, and transportation driven by the discovery of energy
Technology ascended to the next level through the second industrial revolution with
the discovery of electricity and its derivatives such as electric motors, incandescent bulbs, and others.
The advancement of science and the discovery of new concepts enable flight.
and progress in the fields of medicine, chemistry, physics, and engineering. In addition,
allows the construction of skyscrapers and urban areas that
the population relies on motorcycles as transportation. Communication is also
developed with the invention of the telegraph, telephone, radio, and television. By the end of the century
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, aircraft and cars were invented in the field of transportation.

In the 20th century, there were more and more new discoveries. In the field of physics,
The discovery of nuclear fission triggered the invention of nuclear weapons and nuclear power.
Computers were also invented and have become smaller in size thanks to transistors and
integrated circuit. Information technology leads to the invention of the Internet,
to this day known as the Information Era. Humans can also explore outer
space with satellites (later used for telecommunications) and missions
sending humans to the moon. In the field of medicine, a surgical procedure was discovered.
heart and stem cell therapy and the discovery of various new medicines.

Progress
There are three basic classifications of technological progress:

The advancement of technology that is neutral


technological progress). Occurs when the level of expenditure (output) is higher
achieved with the quantity and combination of income (input) factors
the same.
Labor-saving technological advancements
technological progress that has occurred since the end of the century
The nineteenth was marked by the rapid increase of technology.
that saves labor in producing something starting from peanuts -
nuts to bicycles to bridges.
capital-saving technology
technological progress). A relatively rare phenomenon. This is especially
due to almost all research in technology and science in
the world is done in developed countries, which is more aimed at
saving labor, not its capital.
This serves as evidence that technology has indeed become a necessity, and
the average of every sector of human life. Especially after the discovery
computers, and laptops, which now almost all human work has
relationship with computers or laptops. Therefore, it is appropriate if the computer
is the most recent discovery, and the most influential in
human life.
